ICQ used to have this years ago. I think its kind of an invasion of privacy. People expect things to only be sent once they hit send, not as they are typing

From what I remember, Wave had it optional as they even said themselves a lot of people were uncomfortable with the idea of people seeing their train of thought (and mistakes). It's an interesting idea but it's a horrible way to treat the user.
