Yup, that's an old but 1.1svn specific bug; there's a Trac ticket on  
it somewhere.  I started actually noticing for the first time while  
coding this, as I don't normally toggle settings and pay attention so  
closely.  It needs to get hunted down and squashed before 1.1 beta,  
for sure.

Doing something different depending on the source of the change could  
be cool, though potentially much more complicated.  I use status  
sort, so a slide ends up being a very intuitive thing for someone to  
do when coming on/offline or changing status, but under alphabetical  
sort the slide probably wouldn't be nearly as communicative.

The AIAnimatingOutlineView implementation currently leaves the  
superclass to do all the drawing; it just manipulates the rect in  
which a given row should be displayed.  It's also fully Adium- 
agnostic, but that's just because it was cleaner to do it that way,  
not because I particularly care that the class remains "general".   
Returning NSZeroRect for particular rows and then doing some  
CoreAnimation fun seems like it'd be a feasible way to extend toward  
other effects... are you going to play with it and show us some fun  
demos? :)
