Cool idea.  I would hang out if other people did.

There are 5 people in hallway(_at_)jabber(_dot_)ietf(_dot_)org now. Hardly a critical mass, but it may be sufficient to count as "other people", at least.

+1 to using protocols other than email for ephemeral discussions such as these :)

For it to take over as the discussion venue of first resort, you really need a situation where mentioning something in the chatroom makes you feel like you've adequately vented. That implies you need not only a reasonable number of people, but the kind of people you wanted to raise the issue in front of.

Of course, we could even discuss this in 
hallway(_at_)jabber(_dot_)ietf(_dot_)org now.
