Description Guillaume Desmottes 2008-03-04 00:00:15 UTC

The first time I opened the "Manage favorites" dialog I was confusded because we can't add a new favorites from it. We should have a "add new favorite" button.

Humm do we really want this actually? Before adding a room as favorite it makes sense to first join it and so to tag is as favorite from the room window.

Furthermore, we removed the ability to add custom status from the custom status dialog (896aa85c871372227e96906420659e38d091f2ac) which is kinda the same thing.

I get a bug report on the debian BTS were the user was confused that when joining a room, it was added to the favorite dialog but was disappearing if he was quitting it. I really think that make sense to mark chat rooms as favorite without auto-joining them.
