Is there a way I can make Messages pop up chats in new windows by default like iChat used to ?

Is there a way I can make Messages pop up chats in new windows by default like iChat used to ?  I really hate the new way all of my chats are in one window and I have to manually open them in a new window.  I miss having them pop up in a new window as people contact me.

Hi,
The Chats can be double clicked off the Messages window into a separate window and then the Messages window closed.
What can't be done is to start the chats in new windows.
It also pays not to use th DOCK icon to "read" new messages when the DOCK badge shows as this reopens the Mesages main window.
