O.P. Filetransfer status in the chatwindow
I was hoping someone else whould have this idea or suggestion:

I use the MSN messenger quite often to tranfer some files to my other pals online. You can have 3 active filetransfers (up or down) at a time. This is a handy option of the messenger and i use it a lot.

BUT....

Imagine this: You are transferring a quite large file whiche takes quite a while to complete. In the mean time you keep on chatting with your pal and a while later you wonder what the status of the transfer is.
Right now, the only way is to scroll wayyyyyy back up to find the filetransfer in the window. This on itself it quite annoying, but if your pal sends you a message while you are scrolling, the chat window autoimatically returns to the end-line of the chat..... so you can start scrolling all over again.... VERY annoying!!

So, what i would like as a new option in MsgPlus, is a filetransferstatus, somewhere in a fixed place in the chatwindow (for instance in the same bar the MgsPlus developers put the new MsgPlus menu icon).
These icons can be very simple icons when you click or point at it, you get the exact details of the filetransfer.
(or something like that). You can make an upload-icon green and a download optionyellow, for instance.

Like i said, i was surprised that no-one has asked this before, so now i will ;)

So, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE,  add this feature........ I would considder that an other "in your face, Microsoft" response to the msn developers.... lol
