           Summary: Default settings are extremely annoying
           Product: kopete
           Version: 0.70.2
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: hashinclude at gmail.com


Version:           0.70.2 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.28-11-generic

The default settings on Kopete that's bundled with Ubuntu 9.04 / KDE 4.2.2 are
extremely annoying, and I think those should be changed to be much less
intrusive:

1. IM windows on the current desktop should always be treated as "active" but
marked with a WM urgent hint (per suggestion in bug 191024).

2. If an IM conversation is open with a certain contact, followup messages
(irrespective of virtual desktop / screen) should not popup a message. It
becomes VERY annoying when I'm trying to debug something and the right 25% of
the screen suddenly fills up with IMs
3. Same with sounds - incoming messages for open chats at least (I'd say any
chat) should not trigger a "ding".
4. Right-click on the taskbar / dock Kopete icon does not allow me to control
notifications. IMO it should, because the chat windows don't either. (however,
this is minor if the above 3 are fixed :) )

As an IM client Kopete is great, but I much prefer the 3.x Kopete to the 4.x
Kopete in their default states.
