I guess I did the “impossible”.   The way I did this was to keep the chat in a separate window to the left of the main meetecho window.  That allowed me to see both at the same time.  As discussed earlier, having the chat open in a separate window by default would be helpful.

I suspect there are a lot of different ways to do this, but agree that it’s important for a chair to see both the chat and queue at the same time.
