The point of an IRC-to-IM bridge is that you could use either. I'd not 
want my IM client to pause for 15 minutes (not really instant, either). 
The Jabber clients I've used had a setting for 'I know a discussion is 
going on, but I don't want to hear about it'. It would minimize and not 
bother me.

*All* IM clients do that when you're in 'away' mode.
