           Summary: Adding IM address does not create a usable link
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: tokoe kde org
        ReportedBy: bluelightning bluelightning org


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.90)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5-20050130 Gentoo 3.3.5.20050130-r1, \
                ssp-3.3.5.20050130-1, pie-8.7.7.1
OS:                Linux

If you simply add an IM address to a contact using the "Edit IM Addresses" button, \
and then try to use the "Chat With..." context menu item, it doesn't work. You \
actually have to make the link from the Kopete side before it will work.

Two possible alternatives here (actually, both could be done):

A) When you enter an IM contact on the KAddressBook side, and Kopete is open, use \
DCOP to get the actual contact and make the link

B) Add a separate function to "Add from Kopete". This would bring up a list of \
Kopete's contacts with a search/filter box and allow you to select the one to link \
to.
