I've only played in a very small number of tournaments, but have tried doing the following (and it seems to work):

Send a private chat message to my partner saying, "I'm setting up a chat room, please join me to discuss bidding and signalling").

I set up a chat room and make it invisible, with my partner as one of the people invited (otherwise he or she cannot see the chat room to join it).

It seems to work quite well. Since we are in a chat room, that is the default destination for chat messages, so it is not necessary to keep choosing the person the messages are to go to (or use <Ctrl>+R). Also, there is not the confusing lobby or event chat mixed in with our conversation.

We get yanked out as soon as the tournament starts, so we can simply ignore the upcoming tournament and chat away until --- whoops, now sitting at the table!
