Comment (by deryni):

 I think reserving a line is likely a good thing, but I don't think we
 should do it at the cost of preventing it from being disabled in the
 manner grim is talking about (or in other manners) nor do I really think
 the method in the patch (in the code really) is the correct way to do this
 sort of thing. I have been under the impression that it should be possible
 with a plugin to change the display characteristics of the typing-
 notification text tag and thus hide the typing notification text, is this
 not correct?
