Chat window

Is it possible to modify the chat window? As a GM I'm forever "speaking with the wrong voice", can the active ID name be placed by the curser?

The chat entry box is defined in desktop_classes.xml. It should be possible to move the left edge to the right making it shorter, and add another text control to the left of it with the current GM ID in it.

Been working too long today. I can get a stringfield into the chat class at the left hand end of the chat entry box, but I can't set it from anywhere useful.

Oh, more powerful brains out there, am I going to need to set up an event handler, or can I reference the chat window from somewhere like gmidentitymanager.lua?

I agree with Murgh, this would be very useful.

Thanks Spyke for trying, I wouldn't know where to start! :)
