for those of us that use windows media player and the playlists that come with it. I'm not and will never be an iTunes user and i have had winamp and it is nice for the sole reason of flac support but I have not found a way to get the music list to work as well as the one in WMP.

Add the option to change the size of the notification pop-ups to a smaller box with smaller font so that they take up less screen space.

In some other clients, /away and /status are used to change away and status messages. For example, if I am talking to somebody and need to quickly go away, I just type "/away eating brb" into a conversation window and send it, my away message goes up with "eating brb". If I want to change my status, "/status bored" would change my status to "bored".

It'd be nice to view the URL of the link someone is sending you before you click on it. Either pop up a tooltip with the URL on cursor hover, or on mouse right-click.

Ability to only show an email icon in the system tray if there are unread messages.

Right-to-left languages (Hebrew, Arabic) should be supported in message dialogs and popups. This includes:

1) Composing a message in RTL form by hitting right Ctrl+Shift (Windows standard behavior).

2) Displaying incoming RTL messages as RTL, according to the Unicode display standard (i.e, if a message starts with an RTL character, it is to be formatted as RTL).

I'd like to see Digsby support transparency as every other single IM app seems to do.

Trillian has the ability to have different opacity settings for windows when they're active vs. inactive. (As well as Pidgin, Miranda, etc)

As far as I know, Windows XP/Vista support this system-wide, so I think it would be doable.

It would be nice to have animated emoticons so you can use animated gifs as emoticons...

IM status in Digsby should be reflected in the system tray icon, e.g. by different colored icons.

Use the alias you set for buddies on your list in chat history rather than their screen names.
