Sort of time stamp for the chat window / dice rolls

There was another thing that confused us during our first session. It happened a couple of times if the last dice roll on the screen was something that just happend or if the shown result was an old one. maybe it would be a good idea to add a kind of time stamp.

Like that suggestion. iTabletop timestamps the text log and it's useful for exactly the stated reason. It's just in a small unobtrusive font after the name displayed in the log. Like this Captain Kirk (13:17 on 14-May-12): "I kiss the Klingon"
Maybe a mouse-over with the date and time for all entries and a special marker line with just date and time when there was more than, say, 1 hour between entries?
Or display the full log in a popup (or just a download for that matter) and leave the existing chat window clean and uncluttered. Timestamps are important for analysis, not communication.
