 So, suppose we matched a filter. What can the user tell us to do from the first field?
-*Create tab for ... (source, target, handling, parent of handling etc.)
+*Display on:
-*Display on the target tab (passed in by the caller, usually server / channel / user)
+** the target tab (passed in by the caller, usually server / channel / user)
-*Display on the source tab (for example, the user who sent the message)
+** the source tab (for example, the user who sent the message)
-*Display on the current tab. (whatever's current when display is called)

-*Display on the handling tab. (the tab display was called on)
+** the handling tab. (the tab display was called on)
-*Display on the parent of the handling tab. This is the network/server tab for users/channels/dcc, and the client tab for networks/servers.

-*Display on client tab. Plain, simple.
+** the client tab. Plain, simple.
 *Get Attention. Will flash the window. Ignores other fields.
-*Set the tab state. Will use the other field to pick a state and tab to do this on.
+*Set the tab state. Will use the other field to pick a state for this, and a list of views to try and set (same options as the display action).
 *Play sound. Takes the second field into account: beep or url to sound file
 *Dispatch. Takes the second field as the parameter.
-*Run function. Only available using a plugin / script?
+*Run function.
-*Is important. Mark as an important line, just like stalking currently does.
-=== Fallback for displays ===
-Suppose a tab we want to display on does not exist? The user should be able to specify how to fallback (we can't just not display anything without notice).
-Suggestions welcome, the talk page should be good for that.
 === Existing things that could be done using filters ===
