Go for it! Glad to have you on board. We're not planning on doing
anything like this over here.

Seeing that the thrust of Koi is in building collaborative programming
tools it would be nice to be able to easily include snippets of code or
build files or whatever in your messages. Highlight some code, select
IM->Sue from a contextual menu, type a quick message ("What's wrong with
this?") and Sue quickly sees the snippet and the message in an Eclipse
view. Better yet be able to send markers or patches or JUnit tests or
whatever and have Sue be able to easily integrate them into her
environment from the IM view. That kind of thing.
