Description

Hello,

I'd like to see if I can request a feature wherein the private message window or channel window that the highlight or new message takes place in blinks in the task bar instead of the main window.

It doesn't make a lot of sense for the main window to blink if you are using the "Open new windows on desktop" option from the General section within the Windows options, more so if you combine that with minimizing the main window to the tray icon.

Often times I will have a lot of other work open across my monitors and come back to a blinking 'main' window or if its minimized to the tray icon nothing, and not know which of the dozens of chat windows/channels that the main window blinking is for, or miss any notification at all.

Also I see the "Target" version below can only be selected as 3.9, but I'm using "3.8 64 bit"

If there was a reasonable bounty for this feature I might even be tempted to fund it, even if partially at first.

Anyways, client is really nice, /really/ nice, this one thing just seems to be a show stopper for me.
