Please note that we provide the following facilities
to provide feedback, as for new features and talk to
the development team:

- The konversation-devel at kde.org mailing list is a
  good place for a development-related chat.

- http://bugs.kde.org/ is the official bug/wish
  tracker.

I've CC'ed this reply to the mailing list.

We have pondered the same.

Note that Konversation already has the feature of
inserting a remember line into a chat window when
it is hidden by switching to a different tab or
window.

As for following multiple channels at once, we in-
tend to provide the ability to detach tabs from
the main window in a future version of Konversation.
