Comment 2 for bug 391481

Ok,as the wiki puts it : a paper cut is a trivially fixable usability bug that the average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a brand new installation of Ubuntu Desktop Edition
When a first time Ubuntu user opens his desktop,he obviously knows nothing of the working of synacptic/kpackage kit,installing packages,etc. It is fair to assume that he will not look at the documentation since he has already read the documnetation of his previous OS.So what im suggesting is a small icon on the desktop,pointing to IRC support ( like a quassel/pidgin icon on the desktop) with a quick overview of the IRC and a express nick setup.
Ive attached a thumbnail to better explain my point
