Since I haven't written a command for mode changes, I put in the following at the top of my handler for channel text. 
  $conn->mode($mynick, "+i");
  $conn->mode($mynick, "-i");

I also tried: 
  $conn->mode($channel, "+i", $mynick);
  $conn->mode($channel, "-i", $mynick);

My on_umode handler never gets called. The docs aren't too clear on how to do user mode changes instead of channel mode changes. If user mode changes can only be made by the client, how do I know when someone else changes my mode (+o, for example)?
