Description

Currently ignoring user work for all channels on server.
It's easy to ignore obtrusive users when you just want to joy conversation.
But then I got administrator duty on some channels, moderator duty on other. And see two choices:
1. I still ignore users annoy me on some channels — and they can do everything on channels I should moderate, I will newer see
2. I remove them from my ignore list — and will see they treats on channels where I just user.

I see 2 possible solution:
1. additional ignore list on per channel basis
2. option to disable my ignore list on channel when I have privileges to change content or privileges of other users.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify whether channel-specific ignore lists or disabling ignores for moderators is intended, then locate the client’s ignore and channel-permission handling and define tests for visibility in ordinary and moderated channels.
