Proposal
either an option toggle or a chat channel to filter out on the custom chat tabs to filter out NPC chatter
Justification
entertainers for one won't have their tells pushed out so quickly with one less spactial chat source pushing things around
Motivation
chat can be hectic, even more so when a party of storm troopers come into the cantina to harass everyone one about expired licenses and bad breath. these messages push what people actually want to read out of view
I realize this is a bit nitpicky and should be low priority. But It would be nice to have the idle chatter of NPC's not flooding our chat boxes. trainer dialogue shows up there too. By all means keep the speech bubbles, maybe give them a different border or shading to differ them from player chat bubbles. I came across this when in a group. I made a group chat tab but noticed not everyone was putting all their chat in the group chat, so I added general chat as well so I didn't miss anything. to my annoyance I also got NPC rebel guards telling me how they wish they had time to go on leave.

Thanks for your suggestion!

This has been implemented and will be available as an in-game option under the "Chat" section in an upcoming update.
