Description

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start a conversation with many people
  2. On the right sidebar in the participant list, type in some search term in the top field
  3. Scroll down then click an entry "by mistake" instead of another one (maybe wanting to click on the three dots for initiating a private chat)
Expected behaviour

Nothing should happen, I'd consider this a simple search result.
If I want to add a participant, there should be a "+" button behind that I can click.

Actual behaviour

User or group gets added directly after clicking.
The wrong user got added to the conversation, not sure if they are allowed to see it... need to kick that user out quickly.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Talk app using the listed participant-sidebar search steps, including scrolling and clicking a result. Inspect the participant list and search-result interaction, then verify that selecting a result does not add anyone and that adding requires an explicit "+" action.
