Currently you have to do this:

there isn't a nice UI in Element to do this currently, but if you type /devtools in element web, you can Explore Room State, go find the m.room.power_levels event, and change the events_default threshold from 0 to (say) 50

Whereas we should expose this manoeuvre with some nice UI, as it's not that unusual a move.

It could also be nice to expose UI for putting a tombstone on a room to EOL it in favour of another room.

would also be good to expose a toggle for allowing reactions in those rooms, which requires toggling m.reaction and m.room.redaction (NOT redacts) events. Redactions are required so people can remove them.

Err events_default is controllable in the UI using Send messages permission in the UI

I think we can close this as completed as the request is complete.

If we want to discuss more the 'tombstoning' comment, let's open a new issue for that
