Description

The message object currently returns uid, text and other data. I guess it would be great if it also returned the name of the sender.
''.format(self.uid, repr(self.text), self.mentions, self.emoji_size, self.attachments)

**Problem I faced :**

When using Client Class's onMessage() function, it is hard to retrieve the name of the sender of the message, hence new message received displays by uid. Is there any alternate solution to find the name of the sender when receiving a message?
