I really appreciate the fact that you guys have found a way to keep our Action/Commlink/etc. buttons, but I was wondering how difficult it would be to add one more. Realizing that the old NPC speech option is probably a no-go, I was wondering if (after a poll around the community of course) it would be possible to add an "Alien Language" button. This could be used for characters who are unable or simply don't wish to speak Galactic Basic; for example, a Wookiee.
While the button's function is simple aesthetic (like all the buttons), I believe it might make writing out NPCs and non-humanoid characters much easier. Much like the Force Speak button, the Alien Speak button would allow a much clearer read of posts. Instead of a potential Wookiee RPer writing...
"RARWRARWAR" (Hello, might I partake in a pleasant game of checkers with you?)
You could use the Alien Speak button to essentially skip the first step.
<Hello, might I partake in a pleasant game of checkers with you?>
Just a simple suggestion. If anyone has any input or other concerns, be you Whill or regular Joe like me, feel free to PM or post here.

Actually, because I love a challenge, the NPC button is now available.
While your alien languages suggestion is a pretty good suggestion, I'm not sure I'm convinced it's something we need to provide a standardized option for. I would encourage people to be creative and varied in how they portray alien language, just as those languages are creative and varied.

I concede to your point, Master Chill.
Also, I thank you for the NPC button.
Though I can't figure out how to make this work...

Nevermind! Might be nice to have it show up on the preview somehow. Otherwise, awesome!
