Chat Archive displays /gmroll rolls even when whispers are hidden

Detailed Description of the Problem /gmroll rolls are displayed in the chat archive even when whispers are meant to be hidden. Not sure if this is a bug or an oversight. It's a problem for me because I want to save the chat archive before I clear it, and I also want to upload a version that my players can look at, but that's a bit of a problem because of the spoilers in some of my macros (also they'll be able to figure out when I actually roll for things behind the scenes and when I don't). Steps to Reproduce the Problem Use the /gmroll function, open chat archive, hide whispers. Description of Your Setup firefox

Swaggery, players can't see chat they don't have permission to see, even in the chat archive. So, while the GM rolls would appear for you as the GM, they wouldn't appear to players reviewing the games chat archive.

My assumption was that since /gmroll  roll is like a whisper(they're even yellow too), it should be hidden if you choose the hide whispers option in the archive. Guess this isn't how it works and I should suggest it be changed (though the improvement of the chat archive system would allow me to avoid this problem entirely)
It's something we can look into adding. I can't make any promises that it will make it in but we will consider it the next time we look into chat archive.
