I'm also perfectly happy with how mIRC/IRC is right now and don't see the need to make it bloated with a lot of miscellaneous features. If the support is already there through scripts and DLLs for those who really want to use them, then I don't see the need to add it to mIRC itself. But, as said, it's all up to Khaled...

... so why must we keep spinning this topic around and around on here? One thread about these things would be plenty to get all the opinions out there... yet we have probably dozens requesting some, or all, of these features (and requesting that they don't get put into mIRC).
