I think following a model like Daylite is really nice idea. I  
personally would really like to see a client that has tight  
integration between email and chat (and a way to uniformly search  
against both of them). Ludovic had previously expressed interest in  
doing something similar when I mentioned it to him before. We have  
XMPPKit in the Etoile repository, and you're more than welcome to use  
that in whatever app you build, if you'd like to pursue that idea. I'd  
also definitely love to be involved in any conversations about how  
best to design the UI when you get to that point.

Thanks for taking this up, Jason!
