Comment (by kobedf):

 Yes, it is very useful.
 Two issues i would like to talk about though.
 1.it would be nice to be able to set the timeout value to whatever i
 choose to. To me 10 minutes is not enough.
 2.More important.
 Suppose i talk to somebody and close the window. Every time the window
 opens up again it also tries to show the entire discussion (assuming timer
 has not expired). If there is a lot of text i have to watch how the text
 scrolls itself
 from the beginning to the end, and after a few seconds i can resume
 talking again. Would an option that allows me to show the history only
 when i want to and otherwise show only the last 10 lines or so, be ok to
 implement?
