Suggestion: Show more of the presence title when listing comments. It's difficult to get the context of a comment as it is right now.

Comment from Woofbobe on Why is it I sign... 2 minutes ago.
I think "Why is it I sign..." is not enough context to know what the comment is about. Without context most of the comments become a bit confusing for contacts that follow ones jaikus.
@RickMeasham: That's what I do at the moment (although even that doesn't show the whole message and it doesn't work for me in adium IM) but it's just not a very efficient way of scanning through conversations. Especially since a lot of times, you haven't even read the original message, you just get a "me to!" and it could be from the infamous thread on beta IM or it could be an entirely new one that you're eager to subscribe to ;)

@lemonad: Hover over the short presence title and your browser should show most of the original title in a tool-tip

I have created a greasemonkey script to enable this functionality: more information.

Thanks Rick, that's actually a much better write-up than I managed. I should just link to that instead :)

hehe, that jaiku IM thread is an infamous one indeed. "shipped angry young citizen" was another one of these ;).
