I'd argue that it's worth covering xchat-gnome separately to xchat in a review such like this.

For myself, I greatly prefer xchat-gnome to xchat; the UI of the former is IMHO significantly easier to use.

See http://xchat-gnome.navi.cx/?page_id=13

(For instance, managing which channels to automatically login to in the former uses a sane set of graphical dialogs, the latter gives you a text entry box which requires a comma-separated list of names, and which silently fails to deal with spaces)
