#32 audience tools

[Helen Varley Jamieson]

in addition to the earlier requests for the player/audience numbers to be visible to audiences, & the possibility to display a poll for audience to vote on something, another useful tool for the audience would be a button to save or view the text chat.

it seems like it would be a good idea to make a mini palette for the audience, either at the top or the bottom of the chat window, that would hold these & perhaps other options of tools (eg the volunteer av button). some of these (eg volunteer & poll) should only be visible at specific times, controlled by the player(s) - is this possible?

perhaps we could start with the ones that should be visible all the time: the player/audience numbers (displayed same as they are on the player interface) & a button to view the text chat log (perhaps opened in a new window?). (this would also be a good time to fix the code display of the < & > in the log - listed as a separate bug).
