Details

The list of previous chat conversations is currently 'chopped' by sessions. This creates uneeded visual complexity and make it harder to quickly look for a piece of information (at worst, need to click on every single session to find what's beeing looked for)

Instead, previous conversations should be grouped by day and presented in a ordered assembled list as a day conversation.
I generally agree with this idea; although in some cases the session makes sense (if I used my IM client both at the office and at home, the time when the session started is likely to indicate if that session was at home or at the office). I think the separations that that are really pure noise are the ones caused by random short disconnections from the server due mostly to network instability.
