If is definitely a question Hans - the How I'm sure we'll be able to figure out. I like the idea of a chat being inside of OFBiz - it can help on all kinds of levels from helping with errors to walking a user thru the ecomm site to find the particular pieces to whatever - I can't couldn't care less about tweeting in there though - the general nature of it would be bad and difficult for a company to manage.
If ESME does chats - and also can offer Twitter like messaging, then I think we could have the best of both worlds. Hope that helps.
