Standalone chat sessions

I like to hang out in the chat rooms and help my fellow Glitch - Live Help, Glitch Strategy... heck, even Global Chat occasionally. Trouble is, this requires me to have Glitch running in a browser tab, soaking up resources and putting me in-game with my energy slowly sapping away even if I'm not doing anything.

I'm assuming that TS didn't write the chat server from scratch & it's something like an IRC or XMPP server running on one of their machines. If so, could we get the details so that we can configure our own clients and connect to it? Or would that create a whole raft of problems with authentication, the game showing us as online, people clicking on our names etc etc?
