Text Editing in CoC Chat

I like talking to my clan mates and other players in the Clash of Clans chat, but it is missing some key features. One feature that would make a good addition is scrolling through the message via tapping. If I notice a bad typo at the start of my message I have to erase the whole thing and re-type it, which can be aggravating. Also, if the text box where you type could expand to show the whole message that would be great too. I understand that developers are mostly worried about gameplay, but this would really help communication between players, something that is crucial since the addition of clan wars.
