The privatemsg module has some ajax that can autofill buddylist buddies into the "To" field. We can either write a plugin for user relationships to do this or submit a patch to the privatemsg folks, but I'm leaning towards plugin b/c it then gives administrators the ability to turn autofill off by disabling a module instead of coding with hook_form_alter() or some such.

I agree, we should write a plugin for UR.

After investigation it appears we are not populating our private message "to" field with data from the user's buddylist. We currently do not use this functionality in privatemsg.

It looks like the buddylist module populates a "quick" field that lists your buddies and anyone you've messaged in the past (basically an address book). This plugin's probably still worth writing, but marking the priority to minor b/c it's not as big of a thing.

done.

does pretty much the same thing privatemsg was doing with buddylist only UR is using the form_alter hook
