Subject: [PATCH] Shared workspaces: the computer panel and Bots page say what
 a teammate can see

A teammate's side panel was an empty card the size of a screen under a tab named for another bot ("Boppy's computer" in Orgo team's chat). The tab is now Owner's computer (or Owner's Mac), and the card a plain line saying its screens show only in the owner's Bops and its work shows in the chat. Settings, Bots no longer promises each bot a settings page a teammate can't open.
