The only purpose it really serves in those other games is because certain characters can hear others thoughts. Unless something similar was in SL2 I'm not sure how much use would be gotten out of the feature. Then again it wouldn't do any harm and people already put their characters thoughts in the say chat and just wrap it in arrows < ... > It might clear up confusion when people do that as not everyone knows that people are thinking when they use those arrows.
