Good point on OTR messaging.
Many of us use Pidgin to facilitate OTR messaging within a SILC network
chatroom (created on the fly). SILC is quick and flexible - much better
than freenode.
TOR is comfortably used by Pidgin to get to SILC, making the OTR
conversation secure, and anonymous to all but the participants
