Floating Message Window

Is there anyway you could create a Preference : Advanced : Messages : Window Handling? The ability to have the message window float above other programs, like the Contact list does, would be much more conducive to chatting while working. This is even more true on small screens like laptops as it is switching back and forth can become a hassle.

Love the program, the interface and the price! Best one I have ever used!

Yup, I've been planning to add an advanced preference for this for a while. It may make it into .8.

ooh i'd love to have this feature. us laptop users on 12" screens have too many windows to juggle. i keep my contact list pretty narrow and floating it would be even better.

Umm... you can already float the CL, I believe. The requested/probablytocome thing was floating the message window. (Preferences > Advanced > Contact List)
