Not for your opponents, say, lets just say that a newbie wants to learn
how to play by watching more experienced people play it.  There should be
an observer port.  The feature would show the whole map, all the moves of
all the players and learn from there.  It is probably a better way than
just watching the computer.  They should be able to click on any
building/unit and get the info--cheating observers should be kicked out.
An observer should be able to view anything for any player.
