Comment:

 I'm still not sure why leaving the room open isn't acceptable, but I don't
 have to. That second request is definitely something that is squarely in
 the realm of something a plugin should be handling (and not the Message
 Notification plugin despite what the contributor of ticket #2980 seemed to
 think). There is a plugin in the purple plugins pack which allows for
 specifying specific words to highlight and while I don't think it makes
 much sense to add window raising to that plugin it might make sense to
 extract the matching backend from that plugin into a generic backend
 (plugin) that both the highlight and (to be created) raising plugins could
 use.
