Spectating "Insert Name Here"

When a friend of mine is spectating a game, lots of the time it's fun to use the spectate of spectate function that was recently added and watch the game they're playing.

But one of the things that kind of bugs me is that you can't see who your friend is spectating before you hop into the game with him.

I think it would be a really nice if when you spectate someone, call the person you're spectating Friend X, your own friends will see "Spectating Friend X" instead of "Spectating."

There are a few reasons to do this.  One, it might help you decide whether or not you want to spectate off of their spectate.  If the person they are spectating is really cool, you can jump right in.  If it's someone you both know and you're not really interested, you can avoid it and save some time.

Like some of my other suggestions this one isn't really about balance, and is therefore not all that important, but I think it would be a nice change to see that shouldn't take much work.
