i like the idea of simply playing a sound when someone sends a message, but you can also disable ringtones or set custom ones (it's one of the menu options, remember?) even though i think nobody ever bothers since it's not saved between rounds.

...

but is this really a big enough problem that it requires a fix? any change would impact a ton of other interactions, not just "guy quietly calling security".

you can similarly bypass the typing indicator by using the command bar at the bottom, and can even speak over radio channels if you aren't in whisper range.
