Single window #10

Nachat is the only matrix client that is using a different window for the room list and the chat widget, as far as I can see. I find this choice odd, since as soon as you open more than one room you get a list of the open rooms in the left side of the chat window. Is it possible to redesign the UI using a single window, like most of the other clients do?

The fact that it will allow me to split chat off into different windows is one of the primary reasons I'm interested in this client and am actively looking for ways to contribute. Single window UIs for chat clients are really annoying and hinder my workflow. I can appreciate that not everyone feels this way but given that this is currently the only client that supports this (for me) critical feature. I for one appreciate the choice this design decision has given me.
