I strongly disagree with opening windows automatically by default, It breaks all indicator applet idea and in my humble opinion current way is the best (give indication that you need to give attention to conversation. If you can't then you don't have tens of windows lingering open in the background). Popup windows always have been bad stuff, and I don't see any real reason to enable it by default just because of legacy of IM clients. Option will be available and that's nice (thanks to Guillaume and other devs). But I think it should be left as it is.
It could be enabled when accounts are imported from Pidgin or some other IM client, for example. -- Open (but do not raise) new conversation windows automatically https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/206547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
