Description
### Your use case
#### What would you like to do?
When notifications are set to "All Messages" for a room, an unread message count displays next to the room name.
If notifications are set to "None" or "Mentions and Keywords Only", it stops showing the unread messages count icon.
I would propose that the number of unread messages is displayed for each room regardless of its notification settings.
#### Why would you like to do it?
I don't like getting system notifications for chat group messages, and would prefer to catch up on messages at my leisure when I choose to open the app.
#### How would you like to achieve it?
By opening the app and seeing the number of unread messages next to each room I'm in.
### Have you considered any alternatives?
I tried disabling notifications for the entire app, amd setting each individual Room to "All Messages".
This gives the desired behavior, but I lose the ability to selectively enable system notifications for individual chat rooms.
### Additional context
I'm on graphene os if it's relevant.
### Are you willing to provide a PR?
No
