Package: gossip
Version: 0.8-2
Severity: normal

I can not use gossip at work simply because the risk of missing a
message is too great.  The problem is simply that I can't keep the
chat window on top all the time, and if I am not looking at the chat
window then I will not be notified when a new message arrives.  I
would like to see an option to bring the chat window to the top when a
message arrives.  This feature in gaim ensures that messages are not
missed.  (note: gossip's buddy list is more aesthetic than gaim's, IMO)
