   Most of this sounds possible, but I can't think of any way of making the
   emacs catch the initial "Talk requested" message directed at your terminal
   when someone wants to talk to you.

I don't think this is necessary.  I for one know that I don't want
emacs to suddenly pop into a talk for me.  What if I have left my
terminal?  Person on the other end is typing a way like mad thinking I
am intently reading while I am downstairs deciding if I want M&M's
with or without peanuts.  Let the user hit 'M-X talk'
