Summary: option to require ssl/tls 

Initial Comment:
While SSL is there, I don't think TLS support is
included on the Windows builds.  It would be awfully
nice to include TLS in the Windows builds.  Thanks.

I agree on the proposed new menu layout.  I traced my
initial problem back to the server, so I'm working with the
jabberd2 people on that, but thanks anyways.

I think this should be high-priority.

If you want to send me gaim's debug output from the start of
the connection to completion of signon, I'll see if I can
help you figure out the TLS thing.  

I agree some sort of visual notification would be nice.  But
I really can't think of any place to put it, that works well
for multiple accounts.  What we really need is for the
jabber options to go something like this:

[x] Use TLS if available
[  ] Require TLS
[  ] Force old-style SSL
[  ] Allow unencrypted plaintext passwords

Hrm.  I never get the "(ssl)" part.  I may have an issue
with my jabberd v2.0s8 not supporting/using TLS.  I'll
contact those folks about that issue.

However, this brings up another point.  I think it's
important to have the encryption status more prominently
displayed.  I don't want to have to go to the debug window
to see if my chats are encrypted.  Maybe something like the
little golden lock icon in the lower-right of Firefox?  Thanks.

Connect with debug output enabled.  Every send and receive
to and from the jabber server should have "(ssl)" towards
the beginning of the line, i.e.:

(07:47:22) jabber: Sending (ssl): <presence/>

If you're not seeing those, then SSL/TLS was not negotiated,
and it is in fact an unencrypted stream.

I'm using v1.3.0 on Windows, and everybody here gets a popup
about using plaintext auth over unencrypted streams.  If
they allow the connection, it works fine.  My jabberd2
server (v2.0.0s8) is requiring TLS connections in the c2s
config, so I'm pretty sure that they're encrypted when they
work.  So why do I get the popup?  Better yet, how can I
tell, in GAIM, that my connection is encrypted?

gnutls and mozilla's nss provide exactly the same
functionality as far as gaim is concerned.
