[Bug 206547] Re: No option to open messages automatically

[BUGabundo]

Hi Xavier.
Please dont mark this as WontFix.

I'm going to tell you two thing that all Devs hate:

1 - please copy and improve the behavior of your competitors (pidgin);
2 - give user choices;

for number one, u wont see users complaing about it, do you? Users like
this, thats why there is this ticket and 3 ppl confirming it.

for number two, i would go with this options:
* silent, like the actual behavior;
* show up on the taskbar and blink (it still is messy when user hides taskbar, or on those new netbook laptops without it, but that would be version 2.0, lol);
* full blown popup, nasty, irritating, keyboard typing catcher.

and then let user choose the one they like. i would use both 2 and 3,
depending on my status...
