Something similar to 'd username message' (in the Twitter convension) in which the individual recipient would be shown the message in their IM client, but no one else.
Including an option in the settings to activate distribution of direct messages as an email as well as Jabber update would be nice too.
----
something like @@@USER will send a private message to the user, and end up either on a new tab, or in his/her life stream with some notice to show that is private, with a way to reply privately;

I've opened a new ticket for sending direct messages by IM (#829) and another for sending direct messages by SMS (#830). If that's OK, I'm re-closing this ticket.
