Ability to hide users below a given power level in the membership list #367

We almost get this for free on LL; just need to spec a threshold below which clients should politely not show joins/parts or even membership of given users in a room. Aka auditorium mode. (Do we really not have a bug for this already?)

Is this feature planned?

It has been mentioned in several issues and discussions. The ones mentioned above, plus:

Rocket.Chat has this feature (called "broadcast channels" there): https://docs.rocket.chat/guides/user-guides/rooms/channels/create-a-new-channel

@turt2live you mentioned in https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/5365 that "the API supports the feature". Can you give a pointer?

As mentioned on that ticket, it was a different time.
