Make chatrooms available and administrable

V11 makes the adhoc creation of persistent chatrooms possible.

However it is not possible to administer the chatroom and it's users.

The only way to enter such a chatroom is by invitation.

If i accidently leave the chatroom i have to wait for someone to invite me.

If everyone accidently leaves the chatroom it is abandoned and nobody can rejoin.

I think there has to some administration feature to assign chatroom-access to users or keep rooms from being completely abandoned.

Also people should be able to see which chatrooms are available.

      The issue now is that a user who disconnects from a group chat cannot join this chat again - he has to be re-invited.

      This would give competitive functionality to the products like Slack and MS Teams.

    Need to have the sametime feature where we can use existing Domino groups as a chat group so that the chats also have their names and are also displayed with their own group pictures and not with the name of the person who invites.
