Description
### Steps to reproduce
1. Join a room (seeing this with IRC and Matrix rooms)
2. Wait until there are unread messages and app badge counter is "1"
3. Leave room without catching up on the messages
### What happened?
Badge counter is there forever until you re-join the room and clear it. Even app restart does not clear it
### What did you expect?
I actually like that it remembers where I was if I leave and rejoin, but I would expect badge/notification to not show for rooms I am not **_currently_** in.
