Contact list management refers to both the things you mention. You can move them around in Adium, but upon restart they are back to the original groups that they were in before reordering. If you do any changes on facebook.com, the changes are reflected in Adium though. XMPP Facebook is much more stable and with fewer bugs compared to the plugin, but you loose the contact list management part which I think is quite essentiel, given that Adium should 'just work'. Status updates are totally irrelevant IMHO, and just a bonus in the current plugin. But this means that I think it should be pushed for 1.5, untill there is a clear migration path. The users are used to the current plugin, and if they do have serious issues, they have the option of switching to XMPP. It is explained how to on the wiki, on trac, and in the forums. -David Munch
