I do not like the idea to have to choose the identity everytime I
launch
Kopete. You should use the last used identity instead, if the user wants to
change to a different identity he/she should do it through the menu or another
mechanism. One process per account is overkill, it would make handling
metacontats more complex.

Separated contact history too, although I think separated history would
be automatic by using separated contactlist, I am just not sure of that.

We would need different wallets per identities here, that would make
using Kopete a little troublesome because most people use only one wallet. The
default identity should use that one wallet used by the other KDE programs to
simplify the use. Only when using other identities the user will be asked the
password to unlock that identity's wallet. I am just not sure if kwallet
allows one process to open several wallets with different passwords.
I like your idea and I think other people will make use of it.
Unfortunately I am very busy and probably will be for the a long time, I
cannot help you with the implemenation. Does anybody here want to help with
this implementation?
