It would be nice if there was a notification for incoming messages _only_ when chat window is not active. 

Personally I don't see the point of playing a sound when you recieve a message from someone you are actively chatting with. However it would be nice to hear a sound when you recieve a message when you are not currently actively chatting with the person.

While there are other notifications except playing a sound on incoming messages to show that they have arrived, I find it pretty hard to actually notice those notifications. For instance when reading a document or concentrating on something else, I usually do not notice the blinking of the system tray icon or the window entry in the task bar when a message is recieved.

This could perhaps be merged into a single event with Bug 86898: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86898

Conclusion: Add an event for "An incoming message has been recieved in an inactive window"
