    i like mac messenger for lots of things like spell check and what not. however i really would like to see the ability to rename contacts , (it would be even better if we were also able to keep their  origional name as well just after the custom name, but just grey it out or something)

    also,, an icon on the top to my recieved files would be nice  as well as  changing the status and personal setting drop down menu from the display  picture icon to the display name instead.. and putting instant change display picture access on click for the display picture icon.

    thanks..!
