This works for me. In my current Teams I can right click on the chat and I have a 'move to' option, which allows me to create a new section, then I name that section as needed, placing it to the top of my chat lists. I am running Teams 25007.606.3361.4724, client version 49/25010620407

Thanks,

It did not show up for me until I checked the Early Access 'Public Preview' box in Settings, shown below. Even then it took a while, eventually a box popped up to show off the feature. My Teams version does not match the one above but the client version does.
