Description

If someone changes their name who is in a lot of rooms I am also part of is extremely noisy and a big portion of my rooms are marked as unread.

I would like to have the option to not get notified on room state changes or by default ignore room state changes.

## Edit
This actually be an element web bug since EX is doing the right thing of notifying for events which include the push rule action `Notify`.
EW is just ignoring name changes manually (overwriting the push rule action) and EX is not.
The best solution would be to fix EW and decide for a good push rule configuration default.
