Meta: Message/conversation appearance
This can be interpreted as summary of issues about the appearance and display of messages/conversations. Some suggestions are from other issues, some are from Gajim MUC. Concentrating all the ideas in one issue may provide a better overview. Additions are always welcome! The idea is to collect and integrate new issues/comments about chat appearance into this meta issue.
