Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Message search results only show who sent a message, but not in which chat.

Describe the solution you'd like
The icon and title should be the one of the room and the message text should be prefix with something like You: or {name}:

Describe alternatives you've considered
Only changing the title and the icon would make it worse because then it shows in which chat the message was but not who sent it.
