Description

Hello!

We have add-user-to-any-p-room in permission lists, we can turn it on for example for admins, but there is no option for admins to add user to any private room. So this permission seems to be completely useless.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the permission lists and the private-room user-add UI, then trace how add-user-to-any-p-room is checked for administrators. Done means an administrator granted this permission can add a user to any private room through the UI.
