participant-joined only emitted when joined #19

The docs state:

Please note that this event may arrive for a remote participant before the local joined-meeting event fires

I understand this doesn't explicitly state that it should fire before, however, there is an implication. It would be extremely useful to be able to observe a room without actually joining. One use case being; the ability to surface the number of participants before joining.

That's a great use case! We will add this to our "features we want to ship" list. Thank you.
