Rocket.chat: How to find owner of a room?
Is it somehow possible to find out who is the room owner for a regular user? The only way I can think of now is to click every single user in the room and find the owner which is not really useful. If its not possible, could it be added?

Maybe with badges ? https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/5848

I just had Martin's problem, trying to find out who the owner was. Never in a million years would I expect that I should look into the main discussion log for this (and what if the owner didn't actually say anything yet? no badge, no info?).
I would strongly suggest that the owner name should be prominently placed in the "Room info" or "Members list" side view.

We may add the roles by the user's name/username at the members list.
Changing this to planned for UI/UX definition.

What happened to this feature request? Could this be added again to some of the next milestones? I think it's still very hard to find owner of the channel.

Similar, but better issue: https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/13967

Would be nice if you could add a @owner tag to address the owner directly without knowing who it is.
