Description
We recently received notification that we needed to update Rocket.Chat. We were running 6.1.x, I believe.
We updated to the latest version, 6.4.4.
However, now we keep seeing this very annoying message in the client:
Error, too many requests. Please slow down.
You must wait 3 seconds before trying this
endpoint again. [error-too-many-requests]
This is particularly annoying because:
- We didn't see it until after updating
- It doesn't save the text that was entered into the client, so you lose your entire message
- It seems to be rather random

Research direction
Start by reproducing the error in the client on Rocket.Chat 6.4.4 after the reported upgrade from 6.1.x, then trace the request that returns error-too-many-requests. Done means the rate-limit behavior is corrected or explained and entered text is no longer lost when the error appears.
