 Replying to [comment:46 felipec]:
 > I already told you; an alias per conversation, that is updated when a
 message with a new alias comes.

 I already said, I don't think it is correct either. I don't want my tab
 title changes all the time with something not set by me. (I always set a
 local alias for a buddy). With my understanding, P4-Context will not
 change the buddy's nick permanently, but only for the message that it is
 associated with.

 > Do a thought experiment; which alias should you display when a message
 without 'P4-Context' comes around?

 The original alias of the buddy.

 > I won't touch libpurple code. If I find a way to implement it just in
 the protocol plug-in I would do it in msn-pecan.

 I don't care, as long as we can make it in a *reasonable* way. Good luck
 to you anyway.
