Feature request: Have MediaWikiChat display a "-" rather than a "+" in the tab/window title when users leave the chat
Open, LowPublic

Description

This isn't a bug as far as I know, but the "+" added to the tab/window title of the chat when someone joins or leaves doesn't really differentiate between the two. I suggest that a "-" should be used for leaving users rather than a "+", as this would make it easier to determine whether or not someone has joined or left without having to turn on desktop notifications.

lcf119 raised the priority of this task from Lowest to Low.

It seems like all that has happened is that - has replaced +, as when a user joins/leaves, - is displayed regardless.
