An IM Administrator, with options for email(change between tunderbird etc) or just for IM(can select emesene, pidgin, empathy etc) as default one and some right click actions to do this more easyer

I agree with Aosi on this one, as freedom of choice is close to the hearts of most Linux users.

But here is an addition to the solution:

1. Configurable launcher icon: select which program to start when pressed (via second mouse button -> configure...)

2. The mail/IM launcher should also be able to indicate when new mail has arrived!

- when I first saw the new position of the icon I said - wow, now this has Mail Notification built in. But no. I still have two icons for mail. The default launcher and a Mail Notification icon, which tells me when I have new mail. This should definitely be built in to the launcher! The same configure... -button would have option to monitor several mailboxes.

Well, right now, empathy is powerful, but lack of something very important for 90% market:

BEAUTY. PRETTY, GOOD LOOKING.

Having email notification build right into empathy would be much more useful, especially because it's available in almost all other IM programs, such as pidgin. I'm not exact sure why this isn't already implemented, or at least as an option. To be honest, it is the only reason I currently use emesene over empathy.
