Research direction
Inspect the Element Web Room header implementation and the related issue #33586 first. Confirm how the banner, Room name, avatar, and shortcut buttons respond to hover; this is done when the highlight is limited to the Room name while shortcut-button highlights remain clearly visible in dark mode.
