           Summary: UI issues when starting a conversation with a new
                    contact
           Product: kopete
           Version: 0.80.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: dpetroff at gmail.com


Version:           0.80.2 (using KDE 4.3.5)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

Recent versions of kopete fail in case when user wants to send a message to a
contact which is not in contacts list and there is no need to add a contact in
it.

E.g. when user tries to send a message to a e-shop manager to find out some
information.

The only way to send a message to a contact is to add it to a contact list and
the to find the contact in it. And if a contact requires an authorization, it
will not be shown in a list and user has to remember a nickname of the new
contact and it's too much work to send a single message. I think, it's totally
wrong from the usability point of view.
