Comment:

 If I remember correctly, most of the opposition to the typing
 notifications was that they caused the history window to unexpectedly
 scroll up as if a new message had arrived. The notifications are useful,
 and the 'right' way to do them is to have them in a separate reserved
 area, as done by Adium, iChat, Gmail etc.

 But of course ultimately it's subjective and just individual preference,
 and I'm personally fine with anything.
