Description
There are certain styling limitations with the way focus indicators are currently implemented. For example, #12145 points out how the default focus indicator can obscure message text and the SmoothOp page describes how the focus indicator can overlap the mention indicator. Also, it's difficult to integrate the focus indicator into a message style's "look".
This proposal is that when focus is lost adium would add "lostFocus" to %messageClasses% for the next message. When the next focus change is made Adium would need to find the existing "lostFocus" remove it, and add it to new location. Zac further suggests requiring a message style info.plist key to enable the functionality.
Here's a IRC transcript of Zac's response:
10:13:26 zac ‣ sort of possible yes 10:15:08 zac ‣ it's a good idea for 1.4.1 but not for 1.4 10:15:18 zac ‣ we can add an info.plist entry for "supports focus recognition" and do that
