Description
It can happen that one is disconnected from an IRC network (for example 24h auto-disconnect on DSL), often the IRC servers don't realize this until quite some time later and only then remove the nickname from the list. Obviously one wants to re-connect to the network before that happens, other IRC clients automatically append or prepend underscores to the nick if the server tells them that the nick is already taken.
Would be good to have this also available in quassel.

This happens already if you specified alternative nicknames in your identity. I think the default identity should contain 2 or 3 variations (using underscores for example).
