here are some things coming to my mind right now when looking at the
current (svn) chatwindow.

- The "Send" button in the bottom right corner is misplaced.
- I would like to show both tabs from the sidebar (information and list
of persons) at the same time. Making both of them QDockWidgets would
allow me to do that.
- The default icon selection for the toolbars doesn't suit my needs. I
rarely print or save conversations, and never use copy/paste/cut icons.
Other ones would be more useful to me: User info, maybe "Block User" or
even "Detach tab".
- Smileys and other text interaction buttons should be near the text
input field, not in the top toolbars. Most other programs I know do that
as well, and it also makes a nice separation between input and chat
history. It would be a good place to put the Send button into as well.
- The "Smiley" button/widget is really cool. I'd like to be able to
add/remove smiley themes from there however.
- Chat history

We could also talk to the openusability people for more/better ideas.
