I have been thinking about the new UI for the Gaim status rewrite and I made some mockups to show the ideas I have in mind.

Basically I think it should have a global status easy to change, but the status for each one of the accounts also at hand. I also want to see or even modify the nickname quickly and see the buddy icon, and as someone sugested to change it by dropping down an image, that will be neat.
I also have some ideas about how to change the global status and how should react the relevant accounts. I think some predefined statuses as Available, Busy, BBL, BRB, On the phone, Invisible, Out to lunch, Unable to type, Around, etc. should do the trick.
Later there can be a plugin that allows to have customized away status with custom away messages even for specific accounts and maybe nicknames with that message like: flik / really really busy!.
Lots of possibilities.
