Description
(This may be better suited for frojs-chat, but I'll put it here for now)
Implement the typing network message, that indicates that a user has started a say message but not yet sent it. Needs to be repeatedly sent to the server in some set interval while the user is compiling a message, and some UI indicator to notify others that a message is in progress.

Research direction
Locate the existing say network message and the chat UI that handles message composition and display. Trace how client messages are sent, then define the repeated typing transmission and the UI indicator; done means other users are notified while a message is being composed.
