Description

To enable the use of Jitsi/Prosody plugins like token_lobby_bypass (https://github.com/jitsi-contrib/prosody-plugins/tree/main/token_lobby_bypass) some more fields in the JWT should be configurable.
In the case of token_lobby_bypass the token element context.user.lobby_bypass should be set to true if the user is authenticated in NextCloud. In this case the user does not have to wait in the Jitsi lobby e.g. when the prosody plugin lobby_autostart ist active.

Research direction

Start by locating where this JavaScript integration creates and configures JWT tokens, then compare the current token contents with the token_lobby_bypass plugin requirements. Done means allowing additional configurable fields and supporting context.user.lobby_bypass=true for authenticated Nextcloud users; no test or file is named in the issue.
