In the founder’s analogy of dining at a restaurant:

- Can we assign users to a particular room, at a particular table (and ensure no one else not at that table can join the conversation)?
- Can users at one table interact with users at another table, within the same room (and ensure no one else from different rooms can join the conversation)?
- Can a user at one table interact with specified users at different tables, in different rooms (and ensure no one else can enter that conversation)?  
Importantly, can the admin assign users to these groups described above?

Thanks for all help / feedback!
