We actually have a view similar to this - open contact list, select the
wrench button and choose "Full" list type. Could surely use improvements
too ;)

But I meant David's note about trying vertical tabs in chat ui. Let's
assume we'll simply add tabs on the right instead on top, not full contact
list, but simple tabs. Then if you have only 2 or 3 active chats, there
will be a lots of wasted space beneath those tabs, look at this
super-ugly-quick mockup: http://i.imgur.com/kFrQY.png - see what I mean?
The block of greyspace in the bottomleft corner.
