LOL.. I switched to Hangouts (from Voice) for my SMS, voicemail and messaging... on my phone, it works pretty nicely... on the desktop actually sending an SMS from my GV number to a contact is nearly impossibly without entering the phone number by hand.

Yes, this is absolutely ridiculous. I have to look up the phone number using Google Voice plugin (which is nothing but a directory search now since Hangouts disables it), copy/paste the number into Hangouts, and SMS/call from there. It is completely unacceptable.
