When playing in a tournament or virtual club that allows kibbitzers, it would be nice if, after finishing a round, you could watch another table.

This could be permitted even with kibbitzing disabled, or with a separate permission. So long as you are watching hands you already played it's hard to see why anyone should object.

Quite. It would be fun to see what our friends are doing with our cards.

TD can turn on kibitzing - ask her/him.
My usual practice is to turn it on when the 1st table finishes.

I will note that in the robot ACBL games, you can kibbitz the remaining tables after you have completed all your boards.

Kibitzing is on in my virtual club. So... I can just join someone already?

I would never turn on kibitzing to all and sundry during a tournament, for obvious reasons (until BBO introduces time delay).
Doing so during the last round is less controversial but still does not effectively address the sensible suggestion, IMO.

Yes, there don’t seem to be any problems involved in allowing only participants to kib. Similarly having a look at the other table when you have finished a match
