[kopete] Plugin for direct access to contacts?

Hi everyone,

sorry for (possibly) a newbie question; I've only switched from WinXP to Kubuntu last week and am trying to customize my installation.

Is there a plugin for Kopete that allows one to access one's contacts directly, i.e. through a global shortcut, without having to open the main window, browsing through the contacts, and finally having to click on the right one?

I've been using Miranda IM on WinXP until now, and it's got this nice little feature where one can press a global shortcut to open a mini-window, type in the name of the contact there, and pressing different keys for sending a message, a file, a url, etc. I seem to remember that GAIM had a feature like that, too, although I haven't used the program in a long time.

Thanks for the help.
