Description Erick Mattos 2007-07-10 03:47:10 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

It would be very handy if one could block (become invisible to) users by a right click option on the contact.
Nowadays is up to each protocol to set up a contact as blocked, so someone needs to set one by one the protocols of the contact it wants to block.
IMHO, I see it as a right click menu option which would launch a small dialog showing the protocols checked by default with a confirmation button.  Someone could uncheck some protocols if he wants and this would be saved in a per user manner.
Unblocking would work in the same manner but having opposite defaults.
Setting each protocol up would be made by Kopete every time you log on and the contact is not correctly configured.
Another separate form could show contacts situation for querying and configuration purposes.
This could be programed directly on the software itself or as a plugin.
Thanks to all the open source community for all the good softwares we are using.

Best regards

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
