-<PRE>I think that what Adam was referring to is something similar to how you can
-link nicknames together so that you can attain the privileges that have been
-attached to any of them through any in the linkage set. However this would
-be different in that it would be limited to that session instead of a
-permanent linkage. Or more simply put, identify to nickserv as being a user
-without actually holding that nickname. In fact the second description is
-better because it doesn't necessarily mean that the nickname your using
-needs to be registered or otherwise documented anywhere else within
-services. Quite a handy method for escaping private message floods or just
-anyone who wants to talk with you.
-
-Though there would then be issues with memoserv. Perhaps modifying the
-memoserv format (or allowing only one of two formats) to be used which would
-include a 'from' token as well as a to token. The memoserv feature alone
-would be a good idea as it could be VERY useful to send messages from a
-nickname without necessarily being that nickname, only linked to it.
-
-(For example if a user has a robot programmed to do something and they trust
-it; the bot could be linked to their nickname and send messages through that
-nickname. Or another example which would be more common; the user has many
-nicknames and is using one in one channel when they receive a memo. Without
-having to change their name to respond they could use the more familiar
-nickname to send a reply back.)
-
-A second thought occurs though that services may only keep track of
-registered names and otherwise operate in a way that would hinder the first
-idea. I don't know enough C/C++ to even think of reading the source to know
-for sure, but just the concept design seems like this might be difficult to
-pull off.
