Make it so you only have to type their partial name, and press a hotkey, like tab or something, to make their full nickname. Since we are getting into mIRC, figured I'd mention that, because Graal is not the only place that houses weird and demented nicknames.


Also, I still think there should be the option to receive PM notification. I'm not sure if you can have different animated icons in the toolbar or what, maybe it would get too confusing. But having the PM bubble show up if you get a PM (not a mass message), make that blink a few times, and if highlighted in RC Chat show something else:

Red Bubble: Highlighted in RC Chat and you have a PM.
Yellow Bubble: Just a PM.
Green Bubble?: Just highlighted in RC Chat.

Or you could just make the icon animated if Highlighted and have the PMs open minimized in the taskbar.



Also, thinking of the Mac users, idk what to do for you... maybe it plays a happy melody if you get highlighted, and shows a picture of a cute puppy dog if you get a PM.
