 I am formally requesting that buddy pounces be given an optional
 expiration date and time.

 Often I set a buddy pounce for a number of people that I need to speak to
 regarding a school project due the next day, a party that's being held
 tonight, a meeting we have tomorrow, etc.  I would love for these to
 expire when they are no longer useful.  Sometimes it's even as simple as
 someone signs off in one location and I'm waiting them to come on in
 another.  If they don't return that night, then I'm not interested in the
 pounce any longer because the time-sensitive conversation is now moot.

 I know it seems like a small feature which may or may not be more time-
 intensive to implement than it's worth, but I make large use of the buddy
 pounce feature and I must say it is near perfect.  The only feature
 missing is expiration dates.

 Thank you,
 Anthony Disanti
