[GA'ed] Now in public preview: Presenter support in breakout rooms

We just tested this feature out. It works as described, but we found the user experience very unsatisfactory. Our specific use case is multiple teachers managing an online class.

• Requiring the meeting organiser to give breakout room manager rights (BORMR) to individual presenters as  separate process is inconvenient. If a teacher is the organiser, it gives an extra layer of admin for them to do either during or in advance of the class. If an administrator is the organiser, then there needs to be complicated communication between the teachers and administrator to ensure this happens before the class starts. Perhaps there could be a way of setting this up when the meeting is set up?
• It is often important for co-teachers/co-facilitators to be able to move between break-out rooms freely. Combining this feature with the BORMR is not adequate:
  • It is very inconvenient and unintuitive to have to take control when you want to move between rooms
  • It is very inconvenient that only one teacher at a time can move between rooms
  • When a presenter (1) with BORMR has moved to a room and another presenter (2) takes over BORMR and closes the rooms, Presenter 1 is thrown out of the meeting altogether. 

We won't be able to recommend this feature to our colleagues in its current state, I'm afraid.
