[Suggestion] Friends button on battle setup screen

Screen where you have joined a game and choosing your colour and race etc...

Needs a Friends button somewhere.

Friends button for what?

You can click on the user and add/remove them in the same way you would in the lobby...

No the friends button to access the list of friends.

Lets say you joined a game. How do you know which friends are online? You dont , because you can only access your friends list from the main lobby.

Easy - use the friend whisper functionality (type /wf and keep pressing tab to cycle through who is online). You don't know the channel, but you know they are online.

I guess I agree with P5yy's sentiments more or less.  The game could benefit from a better in-game windows implementation.  I'd like to be able to pull up a Friends window along with separate windows for different chat channels, perhaps while playing in a game at the same time.
