Thanks! Use cases could be, quick private convo. at a workplace, taking a discussion on a public forum private (like HN or Reddit), talking to strangers (eg: Craigslist) without adding them to your FB or Google Talk, exchanging secrets with your friends without leaving logs on your Google talk etc. :)

The problem with taking a discussion from a public forum private, is that in the current state, everyone can choose to dispose of the room.

As proven in this very thread, it doesn't really work. The idea that everyone can dispose of the room is interesting, but there probably should be an option so that only the creator (or the first to join) can dispose of the room, for such public place cases.

It's actually meant for small group of people to have private conversations and is not really ideal for take a huge public discussion private. The idea of marking a peer the creator or making the first peer an owner complicates the whole privacy and security aspect.

Perhaps an option where a majority of users (if more than two) need to opt for deleting the room ?
