        Overall feedback is v. positive. I think most people can read between the lines. And, for real: competition's good for everyone.

        This is not easy. Particularly since notifications don't lead you right to the relevant chat.

        The quick switcher allows this, on a mac try CMD + K, and then type the name of the person, hit enter. That help?
