Windows Taskbar - Messenger Integration

I've been running the Beta 2 version of Vista for a few days now and I have so much to praise Microsoft for - well done :)
One small thing I would like to suggest is integration of the Messenger Live contact list into the new sidebar (i.e. you can see your online contacts at the side of the screen). I keep trying to put it there, as it seems so intuitive, but I haven't yet found a way to do it. If anyone knows, then I'd appreciate some advice, if it's not possible, then perhaps Microsoft will consider it?
Thanks!

That would be a Windows Live Messenger Team suggestion, since there is no integrated messaging in Vista. The Windows Vista Team is not responsible that product either. I also heard, most development of gadgets are really in the hands of the community. -- -- Andre Windows Connected | http://www.windowsconnected.com Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta
