            Bug ID: 304135
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: 0.4.1
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kde-telepathy-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Add context menu and action icon for log viewing to
                    contact list
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: colomar at autistici.org
          Hardware: Chakra
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: log-viewer
           Product: telepathy

Both Kopete and Pidgin offer a direct link to the chat log in the context menu
of a contact. This makes a lot of sense, since one often just wants to retrieve
something form a contact's log without starting a conversation.
Although one could just launch the log-viewer seperately and select the
contact, it's more intuitive to do it from the contact list since that's a
user's "natural" entry point to everyhing in an IM.
Therefore the option to view the log should be integrated
- In the context menu of contacts in the contact list application
- As an action icon (the ones appearing on mouseover) in the contact list
application
- As an icon in the - yet to be implemented - action list in the contact list
Plasmoid.
These actions should only be available if a log for a contact actually exists
(see bug 299368)

Reproducible: Always
