Interesting question. It boils down to: should the observer have information that none of the players have or should the information of the observer be at most (and ideally) be the Union of the information of all players.

I'd say that requires a bit more discussion in a new bug). Right now we build more towards the second, commercial game clearly go towards the first.

I think this should be merged first and the rest discussed in a bug. I did not review this (on the phone right now) so no comment about readiness for merging right now from me :). Could you send a merge proposal?
