Absolutely agree, and we've already added this to our TODO list for 
Berlin since we first noticed some users experiencing the issue. We'll 
also add some detection mechanisms to try and recover automatically, 
should this happen, and maybe react accordingly in a few additional ways 
(e.g., if you're losing streams often, maybe just give up on speaker 
feed and only keep slides on, in case it's bandwidth issues or excessive 
packet loss).

By design, you should be redirected to the same login page you used to 
join in the first place, and it should remember whatever you put in 
there automatically. If that's not always working as expected, it's a 
bug ad we'll have to look into that. You're probably ending up in a 
login page that actually forgot part of that info (e.g., the WG you were 
following), which uses a different layout.


> After typing in the registration number, there is a background load of your saved picture, AND a very annoying expansion of the area above the name to display the saved picture or placeholder picture. The reason it's annoying is that when you're trying to log in (or RE-login quickly to avoid missing more of the meeting), the check boxes are moving around the screen right when you're trying to click them, you're chasing them around the screen and losing time waiting for them to settle down.

Ack, we'll need to fix that. The avatar feature is a brand new one we 
just added for the meeting here in BA, so there are indeed improvements 
that are needed on the user experience there.


> Relaunching the window from agenda starts all over from the very beginning login screen. If you previously clicked "remember my login info", it fills in the name and registration info. But you still need to re-click the buttons acknowledging the note well. I also click "remember my login info" again "just in case". It seems like this scenario could be streamlined better when you're re-logging in to an on-going session and you're trying to miss as little as possible.

Makes sense, and I guessthe "Note well" part is particularly annoying as 
it prevents you to join if unchecked. If you checked it once, you did 
confirm you read it, and we should remember that as well.

Thanks for your feedback!
