Once locked, a room cannot be unlocked.

What's the expected behaviour? I vote for the approach where only the first room participant to be able to lock / unlock / reset password.

Question: what should happen when the room creator leaves it? Will it still be locked or the second participant takes the owner's rights?

I've been thinking about this... I agree that allowing only the one who locked unlock the room and reset the password would be the best approach. But then we have a problem: if this person gets disconnected for any reason, when they reconnect it'll be assigned them a new ID. Which would make impossible any changes to password and unlocking the room.

Given this scenario, I'd go with a simpler solution: anyone can unlock the room. If a team is using a private room, all of them should be aware that unlocking the room wouldn't be a good thing. Ideas?
