I can't see a downside to having it and I think that chat boxes and "official" IRCs do allot to keep the more blog-ish conversations to a minimum and give folks a place to chat about more mundane things instead of cluttering up unrelated comment sections with it.

I came here to post something similar, so I upvoted instead. My idea was in the line of "support subs" and people needing help. I think people will naturally gravitate towards some sort of group chat if the community is healthy, but it would be nice to simply jump in straight away.
