Hi,

Thanks for your mail, that's nice to have comments from "non-standard-users"
This space is currently not used in Gajim, so that's nice to have those 
icons I think.
But I agree that using only the keyboard is interesting, not only for 
you. So what about adding shortcuts like Alt+I for Information window, etc ?
