Improve search/view history

Hi

I've just seen the search/view history of Trillian Pro and loved it at first sight.
I would be nice, if something like this (or even improved :D) could be implemented to Adium.

A simple shot of the Trillian feature can be seen here:

Second, I uses meta-contacts a lot. But when viewing history of a meta-contact Adium shows the history of just one account and not the entire meta-contact. It would be great the see the chat history of the entire meta-contact :)

Yes, currently all the contacts WITHIN the meta-contact are divided.

So Billy Bob Joe, with screennames “iaml4m3arenti” and “omgwtfbbqissocool” would be divided into “iaml4m3arenti” and “ omgwtfbbqissocool”

EDIT: Also, the calendar idea is bloated…

We're planning on redoing the log viewer for 1.0 to Suck Less® ;)

Doesn't seem that way to me. Calendars make it easier to select dates than 3 drop downs.

What I'd really like is being able to search for phrases within the IMs.

Unless you already can. In which case I am an idiot and cannot figure it out, someone tell me.

Well then, make it a drag-out sidebar-thing like in Mail.

Hehe, in that case I look forward to 1.0 even it's a bit long away :)
