The problem is not that notifications are enabled by default (of course they 
are), but what kind of notifications are enabled. The ones Kopete issues 
don't make sense.

Not at all. A change in online status of a contact should be reflected in 
your contact list, but is otherwise irrelevant.

That "User Xyz is typing" notification is also unhelpful and redundant and 
should just be disabled by default.

I'll bring this up in the KDE SIG meetings, I think we should really disable 
that stuff by default in kde-settings.
