Personally I'm all for another window for fts. I think this is the best way because: - It's intuitive for new users. - It's consistent with other applications. Having it in the chat window as well would be a nice convenience, but I think (personally) it would be better to have it all in a window of it's own. Also things like updates, the tls download, or if in the future we automate skins/plugins installation, we can have all the info about the downloads in there. :-)
