Requests/suggestions

First of all I want to thank you for writing this plug-in.  It makes it easier 
to chat with my cousins in Asia but is confusing to use some times.

Anyways here are a few ideas that i think you should implement:

1. have separate in-coming and out-going translations
2. if possible show the in-coming translation language next to the person's 
status in the chat window
3. option to show original text under translation both ways
4. option to turn off translator for specific users

Number 3 is already in the works, but the other ideas are excellent 
suggestions.  Thanks for the feature requests :)

Oh, with number 4, if you set the buddy's language to be the same as your own, 
then it turns off the translations and just sends the messages directly

I think incoming message translation is a very important feature!!!! Although 
it could potentially be a huge bandwidth hog.

Hi, this is an excelent plugin!

I also think that showing the original message (out & incoming) whould be very 
useful.

Another suggestion: translating should be off by default, sometimes the plugin 
auto-detects other languajes when it shouldn't. In general I believe that we 
all have more buddy's with the same languaje than whith a different one.

Chears!
