 we all have long list of buddies in our lists from many protocols. It will
 be really nice to have option to be able to sort buddies by Alphabetically
 and Status(Online) in the same time. This would help during searching
 contact in the list.

 Example:[[BR]]
 how it is now (by status):[[BR]]
 A1 (online)[[BR]]
 A2 (online)[[BR]]
 A11 (away)[[BR]]
 A22 (away)[[BR]]
 A111 (invisible)[[BR]]
 A222 (invisible)[[BR]]
 -=-=-=-=-[[BR]]
 A1111 (offline)[[BR]]
 A2222 (offline)[[BR]]

 how it would be better (by alphabet&status):[[BR]]
 A1 (online)[[BR]]
 A11 (away)[[BR]]
 A111 (invisible)[[BR]]
 A2 (online)[[BR]]
 A22 (away)[[BR]]
 A222 (invisible)[[BR]]
 -=-=-=-=-[[BR]]
 A1111 (offline)[[BR]]
 A1112 (offline)[[BR]]

 To find friend in the list I just search in list his name and I should not
 check his name in all groups of statuses.

 Offline buddies could be switched off and it could be exception in the
 rule of sorting - it does not take part in sorting and always in the
 bottom of list.
