 * First, thank you for this great plugin.
 * I have a feature request about having the possibility to create a more private
   chat.
 * One example would be when you want to supply Live Support or something similar
   where all logged in users should be able to write but only the support staff 
   person should see what’s been written. The support staff should also be able 
   to answer every persons questions separately so only the affected person can 
   see the answers.
 * It would be nice to use the short code for this. Example:
    [quick-chat Username]
 * Where Username is the administrator for that particular chat. This way you can
   put different staff members in control of different sections of the website on
   different topics or whatever.
 * A similar feature could also be used to create a private chat between two wordpress
   members. Where a chat is placed on the members profile page and when someone 
   writes in that chat the effect will be the same as described above.
 * To make the new multi chat easier to administrate perhaps a new tab could appear
   whenever a new person writes. This way you can easily jump beetween chatting 
   among different persons. Having the tabs vertically on the side would allow alot
   of tabs at the same time without to much clutter.
 * Just a few suggestions. Thanks once again!

 * Hi. Thanks for your suggestions. Your private chat suggestion is perfect candidate
   for the next major version but I would hate to over complicate this chat with“
   big” features. I’ll had to choose between this and tweaking login system to allow
   facebook and things like that that some users suggested. I might create poll 
   on the techytalk.info so you user could pick what is more important to you. Must
   think it all over, thanks again. 🙂

 * Thanks for your reply. I understand that a feature like this might make your 
   nice slim chat a bit too complicated, like you said. Anyways I wouldn’t expect
   you to implement this in the near future. This was just a suggestion far down
   the road if you had some extra time on your hands 🙂
 * I really like your plugin and thank you for your hard work 🙂
