Feature request

Provide additional option for call layout customization

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Multi- (two-) speaker view
  • Two-row patricipant bar (bottom stripe of videos)
    • Make resizable from user gesture (splitpanes like in Mail)?
  • Minimize or hide participants with no permissions (passive listeners)
  • Hide own video
  • Horizontal view for speaker | other participants (opposed to current vertical split)
  • Flexible grid in general (masonry)
