Barnowl has a number of very nice features that make it easy to follow large amounts of zephyr traffic: search, color coding, auto-narrowing, etc. Barnowl can also store logs of zephyrs sent and received for future reference, but the logs are saved separated by class in a way that's quite annoying to navigate sometimes.

I got lazy before actually implementing these specs, but I believe they'd be relatively easy extensions to both zwgc and barnowl (in their respective extension languages, even — no changes needed to core). +Some time ago I wrote [a spec for zephyr client hints](http://geofft.mit.edu/p/zephyr-client-hints.txt), optional extensions that zephyr clients can easily implement to add nifty stuff like typing indicators and [preventing zwgc from starting more than once per user](http://debathena.mit.edu/trac/ticket/206) and such.
