 We use Pidgin at work for brief communications.  When I send a co-worker
 something, they type "OK".  That means that my IM button starts flashing,
 and I have to stop what I'm doing to see if it's a real message, or just
 an acknowledgment... it interferes when I'm trying to concentrate.

 It would be nice if there were an "OK" button on the panel, when someone
 read your message, they could click that, indicating "I read your message,
 no further comments."

 When they click it, it would add OK as a response, but it would not alert
 me to a new message.  I would have a record in my log that they saw it if
 there is a question later, but I really don't need to stop what I'm doing
 right now to see it.

 Am I the only person who would like to see that??
