With casual, do you mean that it should be possible to join a video conference without 
registering/using an account? I haven't thought about it yet, but it shouldn't be hard to 
re-add to the login screen. Originally there was a checkbox for anonymous login, 
which should be restored. 

Or is it more about the proposed layout? I suppose that the chat's prominent space in the middle 
could/should be configurable, so that the position of the chat and video can be switched and kept persistent 
as a user preference. The alternative layout has the video tile canvas in the main center view and chat in the 
right context panel.
