This makes it pretty uncomfortable to follow a conversation, especially if you are unable to click each message as soon as it is sent, because then you lose chronological order.

It would be way more awesome if toall: messages were (optionally?) displayed in a regular irc-like scrollable small chat window, perhaps with clickable nicknames to show account names.
You could easily handle the ChatBar.onAction() handler, and check if the message starts with toall: and rescript your own way to send it, and set ChatBar.Text to null (or player.chat), so that it doesn't send the old toall aswell.
