Sort users based on roles

[gsunit]

Under "Members List" there should be an option to sort users based on their roles. Currently, we can only filter users based on their "online" status. This feature will particularly be useful in a large room with a lot of users. New members can quickly get to know who are the owners, leaders and moderators of the group.

Thus, according to the following hierarchy, we can sort the users. Please suggest changes, if any required, in the same.

• Admin
• Owners
• Leaders
• Rocket.Chat team
• Moderators
• User
• Guest
• Bot
• Anonymous
• Rest of the members

@ggazzo @engelgabriel Please have a look at it. I would be glad to work on it.

I think the first step would be to visibly display the user's role on the list.. and later sort and group by roles.

The order of the roles would need to be defined when you are creating the roles, maybe we need to create a new field for that. But let's leave this part for later, as it will be much more complex.

Is the release of this feature planned ? There is many issues about this and seeing who is owner or moderator of a room would be very useful for users. Thanks by advance
