Unlimited in-game chat messages / Listing spectators / Denoting the move number of game events.

3 suggestions:

1) It would be great if all the chats of the spectators in a game were retained (currently, the older chats get deleted if there are too many chats), so that players can go back and read the suggestions after the game. This is a recurring issue for me in League 45/45 games. If this is not feasible to implement for all games, maybe an exception can be made for 45/45, 30/30 games, or for games with more than X spectators/chatters.

2) Spectators in a game can be listed according to their rating in that particular time control (higher to lower). If there are a lot of spectators, it can read "[name of top 3 players] and 23 other spectators."

3) In-game chat messages from lichess can be accompanied by the move number at which the event occurred. For instance, "White offers draw (move 22)" and "Takeback request sent for 6. Kf1."
