I agree with Ian here: The focus of Mozilla Messaging and of Thunderbird should be on end users in general, not Mozilla community members specifically. And the interest of typical end users would be on connecting with their friends, who are not in general on IRC but on AIM and other "consumer" IM networks. Whether it makes sense to include chat in Thunderbird is an open question, but certainly if it were to be done then it should be done as a general-purpose IM capability and not just as an IRC client.
Well, as a matter of fact, Jabber/XMPP inclusion into Thunderbird has been a widely requested feature (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385758 ) and is part of the broader road map of Mozilla Messaging. Unfortunately it will not make it into TB 3, but it might be in successive releases. I'm just afraid that not much work has been done yet however...
