Is it possible to have application specific away settings? Like if I'm in Keynote, Pages/Word, or my IDE for more than 10 minutes with steady input, set status to "Away"?

That's the kind of thing I could see being seriously useful.

This is beyond what I know. Presumably, a plug-in could be written that could do that. If that plug-in does not exist yet, and you lack the personal motivation or skill to do it yourself, a well-thought-out spec sent to the appropriate GAIM mailing lists could probably get something happening. It *is* the most active project on sourceforge, after all, and I'm sure there are some fledgling coders looking for something useful.
