New description:

 I would like to multiple-select users from the buddy list to send them
 invites to a chat room.  Preferably this method would allow me to create
 the chat room at the time the invites are sent.  I would expect the
 interface to go like this:

  * multiple select buddies from list
  * right-click any selected buddy and select something like "add to chat"
 or "add to new chat"
  * If I selected "add to chat" it would go to a list of chats currently
 joined.  Alternatively I should be able to drag any of the selected users
 and drop onto the chat room to send the invite to all selected (even just
 the one).  A dialog box should pop up to allow to type in a message to go
 with the invite (same to all users).
  * If I selected "add to new chat", it would go through a new chat join
 dialog exactly as if I had selected "Buddies/Add chat".  After I clicked
 the "add" button, it would give me the option of typing in a message as
 part of the invite (same message sent to all selected).

 This might be a dependency on bug #926.

Comment:

 This is really a duplicate of #926 - there's no point outlining examples
 of things that could be done in multiple at this point if that issue ever
 gets resolved, this type of thing will effectively be a given.
