Default Multiplayer suggestions

Just played my first online games today and while playing there were a few missing features I thought the game would benefit from:

1. It assumes you have an American keyboard. The game should read from the sytem settings.

2. Unable to use arrow keys, home, end etc. in the chat bot.

3. Is there a key combination to activate and close the chat window? When the game is fullscreen I'd rather see a portion of the screen dedicated to chat (or better yet, the option).

4. A button in the lobby which allows you to change between full screen and windowed mode would be good. I leave it windowed until I'm in game, but once I've won/lost there's no way change back without leaving the lobby.

5. I'd like to see this game expand beyond 1v1. 2v2 play (player 1 side A plays, player 2 side B plays, etc.) would be a logical extension, along with the offering of some 50% larger maps.

6. An observer mode would be useful, especially if there's ever going to be any tournaments (official or unofficial), or for people to learn, or simple observe interesting games, or games when there's only three in the lobby.

7. Not multiplayer related, but please improve the AI, or use an easily moddable AI system in your next game so we can improve it Whether the online scene takes off or not, one day the online server will go down, or the community will die, and I'd like to think I'd still be able to get a reasonable game from the computer even then.
