In the next version, tooltips for contacts will show emoticons in the display name.

In the contact list, I think this was an idea ruled out by other devs... I could investigate however... (we'd need to use smaller variants of the emoticons which means graphics processing).

And the conversation window... I've looked into this briefly but I haven't come up with anything conclusive. If you create a ticket, I'll look into it.

If it does start happening in the Contact list it would be really nice to have the option to turn it off. Personally I find graphical emoticons in Aliases to be a pain.
