this PR adds support for the /ids command (added in a PR to cabal-client).
when
/idsis run, the cli shows nicknames appended with the first 9 characters of their public key, see the image below.9 characters was chosen as a long enough identifier that brute forcing is discouraged (based on numbers from lachenmayer/vanity-dat), even if it is a bit garish.
the intent is to run with
/idson when you want to uniquely identify someone, e.g. when initiating a new PM or issuing a moderation action such as adding someone as a moderator, or banning them.p.s. the PR also fixes command output not being visible when joined to multiple cabals at the same time (only the first joined cabal would have its input shown)
TODO
