We've had this idea for a really long time e.g https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/531 https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/issues/531 and is something I would like to tinker with in Dendrite for sure. Typed rooms helps categorise but doesn't allow control over a subset of your account.

>Typed rooms helps categorise but doesn't allow control over a subset of your account. Sure, but they could in the future, right? Couldn't a homeserver in theory generate a more restricted credential for which it would reject e.g. "PUT /rooms/<roomid>/send/..." requests after checking the room type? None of the machinery around that exists now, but it feels like it could be done. (FWIW, I did write MSC1840 with this use case in mind.)

  Absolutely it could. In fact it would be an elegant way to handle grouping rooms together rather than specifying individual room IDs.
