How does this compare to Propane? Propane has a Cocoa + embedded Webkit view, like this app. It supports Growl. It supports multiple Campfire sites. It has configurable message alerts. It supports drag-into-window image uploads. It does not, from what I can tell, support "replying to users" (but then neither does Campfire). It's more expensive ($20), but if you use Campfire regularly, $20 is still below the noise threshold on cost, and if you don't use Campfire regularly, $4.99 is a lot to spend for a niche chat client.

I'm assuming there's a direction you want to take this app that is different from the direction Propane is already taking, and I'm curious about what that might be.
