Block / Unblock user in group at once

[mmrack]

Sometimes, I need to block (or unblock) an entire group of users.

Would be a great feature a single context menu item over the group, with the "Block/Unblock option.

Which account would this use for groups with buddies from multiple accounts in them? Would it block offline people as well?

Replying to deryni:

Which account would this use for groups with buddies from multiple accounts in them? Would it block offline people as well?

Answer 1: I think that this action must be applied to all accounts. Answer 2: Offline users too, because during the session some user in this group can be arrive online and, in this case, I would not like that it saw me.

Actually, I think it might be more useful to have blocking groups that are separate from the contact groups. (or maybe just one group if that's simpler). For example, I may want to block a group of users, but not my entire group of 'friends'.

Plugin that allows you to block/unblock an entire group of contacts.

The above plugin allows you to do what this request is about. I've created it myself and have only tested it under GNU/Linux.
