A view menu is the menu where the visual appereance of the document
you're working on and the surrounding UI can be changed.  It's mostly
mistaken by people with an English UI as "view" also means like "look
at", but this is not the case for all languages.  I don't know what it's
in french, but the Dutch word for example can be translated as "screen"
or "image".   "view chat history" is an action on a user and thus
belongs to the "contact" menu imo.

No, it would just work the same way we dop it now.  The name of the menu
never changes .. so it won't be "contacts" for a multi-convo and
"contact" if only chatting with one user.  It uses the same action
commands we now do.
