This would aid in resolving 44423.

It should be possible to define aliases that only apply to specified networks, and that can be loaded from a script for that network.

This would allow us to create a default script for each configured network, which provides access to any network-specific functions.




Reproducible: Always

I am not really too happy about this idea. It would add a great deal of overhead where I believe it doesn't make sense to do so - that is, it would require (as far as I can tell) either gross modifications to the command manager (which would probably be quite hard while sticking to having it in irc/js/lib), or making a separate command manager for each view, which I think would be way too much overhead than would be required. Commands are sent to the server as raw data by default, if ChatZilla doesn't know about them, so in 99% of cases it won't actually add any functionality (even if we had the will to actually implement all those server-specific commands, which is unlikely, too).

After 9 months, poking this into the WONTFIX bin.
