Description

It would be nice to ask quassel to run "cat ~/.location", and connect to different accounts/cores based on the output. IE when it returns "home", it should use account X, when it returns "uni", it should use account Y.

It would ofcourse require the user to maintain such a file, but it would be much easier switching locations, if all software could do stuff like that :-)

This is useful in situations where people like me need to use one account when connecting through a proxy, and another when connecting directly. I could probably be used in plenty of other situations too.
