 Repair the workaround that displays clues in a separate JFrame by
 reworking the display panel as a regular panel, not a layered one. Fixed in [r8].

-Show the "question" in a dialog instead of a JOptionPane.
+Differentiate Correct/Incorrect buttons, visually, perhaps different colors, and different labels.
+
+Show a status message of which team gets to choose the next category and amount.
+
+Have a way to "undo" if correct/incorrect was pressed by accident.  
+
+Have a way for MC to order the list of names, e.g., by location in the room, before starting the game.  Also have a way for MC to edit the team name.
+
+  On client, stack the buttons with "find server" on top, so it's more natural for the user to choose that option first.
+  
+After someone guesses, show the correct "question" in a dialog instead of a JOptionPane, with a larger font.

 Add error checking to clue file loading.
