Lodestone Suggestion

It would be really neat if The Lodestone had a 'private messaging' system. I feel that having to log on to Final Fantasy XIV just to talk to friends is quite limiting. The following list are some ideas as to what could possibly be implemented and some uses for a 'private messaging system'

• If a player has made a friend over The Lodestone, the player wouldn't have to worry about playing on the same World just to communicate. Just message via Lodestone.
• Players that are in a Free Company could notify others of announcements and updates via Lodestone in a group message.
• Players wouldn't have to worry about waiting for their friends to come online for a questing session, dungeon raiding or whatever the case may be. All you would need to do is plan in advance using private messaging.
