Comment (by rlaager):

 Replying to [comment:8 tmetro]:
 >it seems like there should be a more general solution. Other IRC clients
 don't seem to have this issue, yet apparently provide auto login
 functionality.

 So would you want it to leave your nick as tmetr1 and login as tmetro or
 what? If so, how does that work? FreeNode, for example, just takes a
 password : NickServ: (notice) Syntax: IDENTIFY <password>

 If you could run wireshark and capture what the other client is doing, or
 otherwise let me know which commands to run, I can modify the plugin.
