Bringing back issue for the discussion purposes.

Following proposal:

• possibility to set status (on per account basis)

• possibility to enable/disable auto-presence:

  • option to set desired auto-away presence (away, xa) - including time or stick to only one? I would opt to use <away/> for away without more complications

  • option to set desired auto-away priority (or would it be better to have global config which would assign priority to particular status, online=64, away=32, etc)?

  • option to control auto-away:

    • triggered by application focus and/or system sleep state (I would opt for the former, second seems irrational, as one may only check hour which would switch presence to online)

    • delay in setting online presence (when opening app) and away presence (when leaving the app) -- separate or same? leaving of the app could have longer delay (30s) as sometimes there's need to switch to other app to check something without actually being away - and we would prefer to avoid "presence blinking"

Bottomline for auto-away:

• controlled by the app focus;

• away could have 0 priority by default;

• enabling auto-away after a longer delay.

Implemented in 3.0 RC.

Which RC? I've noticed we are already on RC15…
