A *Minor* yet potentially infuriating non-feature

Hi all,

It's not every day I get to exchange pleasantries on all chat as I'm sure everyone is aware. So the few times that happens, I really don't want to be caught typing and subsequently getting killed. Let's just get the matter of "it's your fault for typing in a dangerous spot" out of the way - you're right, but that's beside the point.

I was playing Starcraft 2 (which is in all honesty a tryhard strategy game) and I happened to type something on chat and then click on the game terrain. This put the chat dialog on a sort of half transparency, indicating that my clicking and keyboard inputs were back on the game instead of in chat. This means that one can theoretically start typing something, leave the message on screen then continue playing the game fully without any input conflicts. Imo it's relevant to League because sometimes you really do have to type something and bad timing has you letting go of the mouse as an opponent appears from a brush. It would be nice to be able to right click and hit some hotkeys instead of hastily posting "asdfq1" on all chat and dying soon after.

Small tweak yes, not even so much as whining but suggesting. It's a relatively easy fix, and a system that has already been implemented to full effect (ie. streaming and observers in tournaments can also benefit from the passive input dialog).
