I love the reversion to courier font when using the very imagination-demanding text-only environment of OpenSim. And the "horrible default avatar" is REALLY horrible!(I do some more audible lol'ing). However, it could be quite effective if you were using the IRC client to act as moderator for any large group discussions or events, especially events with local chatting audience members causing lag or otherwise disrupting the presenter/focal point of the event. You'd get immediate compliance with that avatar. It would be further enhanced if you could super-impose or otherwise insert your X-chat "grey-screen" style into the standard Hiippo/SL viewer local chat window.

Ran into an issue when I tried to enable it in my master .ini file; on machines running multiple instances of OpenSim, the second and subsequent instances would crash because the port was already in use. I've submitted a minor patch (mantis 3852) which adds a Port specifier in the [IRCd] section, so individual instances can select a different port number. Great!
