Quick switcher to include matrix IDs in search results

Open williamkray opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Describe the problem

Some of my contacts have set their displayed nick to just an emoji or a string of emojis. When using the quick switcher to find my DM room with them, it is difficult to do because i cannot enter emojis into the search without copying and pasting them. This same issue may apply to rooms that are named emojis, but i have not tried it.

Describe the solution you'd like

If i could search by their known matrix ID, which is immutable, i could find them easily and use the quick switcher to navigate to the DM room with them. For example:

user @someuser:server.tld has set their nick to :rocket:

I should be able to search in the quick switcher for someuser and have the switcher return the DM room(s) i have with that person. currently, they do not show up at all if i enter that search.
