I agree we need to fix some things, constantly switching activities is bad, but
this definitely needs further discussion.

As a real user, I'm often in my work activity, but want to be online for if any
regular friend wants to chat to me. Having 2 conversations with a work
colleague and a friend shouldn't bounce me between activities either.

As for the filetransfer handler I don't want to have to remember which activity
I was in when I received a file in order to try and find it again. We intend to
add Nepomuk metadata to a file when it finishes downloading (with sender
information) maybe it could just tag the activity on there.

>From a usability POV done wrong this has the potential to make things a million
times more confusing if contacts start "randomly" appearing and disappearing
and conversations appear and different activities.
