Description Seb Ruiz 2009-02-17 01:46:30 UTC 
Version:           0.70.0 (using KDE 4.2.0)

I have many many contacts in my contact list, which I try to keep minimised to the system tray. I think it would be handy to be able to trigger a mini contact search widget with auto completion and common actions to perform on them.

A global shortcut could let a user start a new chat with a contact without needing to open the contact list, search for the user, and then start a conversation. Think of it as a mini kopete krunner, but perhaps located above the system tray icon.

Perhaps best suited to a plugin?
