That sounds reasonable, there’s no need for any presence features on new topics.

The code has changed a lot since I wrote it, so I couldn’t say offhand where that change would need to be made. Longer term it would definitely be good to move a lot of this presence logic into message-bus as @sam mentioned a while ago
