nicks visible? Shift hides nicks

Currently, if player nicknames are not visible, Shift will show these nicks.

My suggestion is to add: if nicks are visible, for example if you're standing (almost) still, make Shift hide nicks.

Shift is there so when you move you can still see usernames by holding Shift. Please, do, not, change, the, hotkeys!

Why would you stand still and hold shift anyways?

Your own nick and other players' nicks can obscuring arrows.
If you cannot move from your current spot, the Shift solution can help.

Seeing the number of woots HG's post now has (already at 4 [Edit: 5, maybe we can go for a record?], I posted my suggestion recently), clearly people don't understand my suggestion.
Maybe you need to be a programmer to get it, or something.
Shift could do two things.
If nicks are visible, Shift can hide the nicks.
If nicks are not visible, Shift can show nicks.
When a player presses Shift, the program can check: are nicks currently visible?
Then the program can perform different actions depending on whether nicks are visible.
