Idea by @inferiormartin: Online status.

Why?

Users can see who's online.

Problems:

Users on clients that don't send the Close packet won't be cleared instantly because the server doesn't know when somebody disconnects.
Quickly becomes more complicated with people wanting Idle, DND and Invisible as well.

This already got simplified by the removal of the Close packet method of knowing if a client is connected to a server. Idle DND and Invisible just take this from a boolean and make it an int8, no biggie. DO IT

Idle DND and Invisible just take this from a boolean and make it an int8

enum* which is going to cause more msgpack problems

But yeah you're right, I totally could do it now I guess.
