 Users should have the option of assigning a sound to the events when
 contacts start or stop typing, so that they could have audible as well as
 visual typing notification if they so wished it. It seems almost silly to
 not have a default typing notificiation sound event in the main
 preferences, yet have the options in buddy pounces. I personally could
 very much use such sound options, as I am often not very close to my
 computer, but would like to know they are typing some thing *before* it is
 sent so I might head to the computer ahead of time. Many times I only go
 by sounds if I am about the house. Imagine what it would be like if you
 had not even visual notification of some one typing, you only knew that
 they were typing when you saw a message sent. It would defaultly not have
 to be any long big sound, just like a light click or some thing, then the
 main message sound when they finally send it. It also seems like this
 would take like 10 seconds to implement o.O

 Thank you! (^^)v
