Google Gripe #5 - A few GoogleTalk limitations

Here are the current gripes I have about GoogleTalk with the caviat that it's an awesome #1 application and everyone should download it.

1. "Send File" and other advanced functions only works if you have the Client, and currently the client is only for PC. Where is it for Mac? (compliments that it is done with the open standard so you can still chat with Google Talk users on other platforms, but we want more functions cross platform!). Why not work closely with the standards bodies to make this so?
2. As previously mentioned if your buddy is away or idle one's avatar should get faded on your googletalk app, as it's confusing if it's not. Not a word yet from Google if they are going to do this.
3. No AIM integration as first announced in December 2005!
