Lack of features…
just for me to keep track on it in next Miranda versions
MIM 08 will be released soon, and since 1.6.2009 feature freeze for stable 08 branch was declared. Unfortunately some of often requested features weren’t implemented. Here are some features, which, in my opinion, should be definitely addressed during 09 development:
- unicode in paths for file transfers
- unicode in profile path and filename
- unicode in contact search dialogs
- unicode in authorization requests
- unicode in status messages
- all types of authorization events in API (like auth grant, auth deny, auth request etc.) and appropriate sound events
- status change API should be able to set status message together with status change in one event
- in-core support of metacontacts (actually any way of joining of some contacts)
- current folder structure should be revised, because right now I see rather strange set of predefined subfolders that does not fit to my logical approach.
Any comments? Suggestions? Or, maybe, you think I forgot something, or there are more important things to implement?

A couple of suggestions:
1. Ability for a plugin to request netlib reinitialization. This way a plugin could supply ini files for different networks automatically based on user-defined mapping.
2. Official protocol plugin should implement “user-exits”, i.e. possibility to call other dlls, that offer to handle non-standard (or additional) protocol messages. This way gtalk (voice, maybe video) could be implemented in a separate plugin, yet it would EXTEND the current jabber dll. The same would apply to MSN, etc.
