The federated nature of Matrix rooms makes this a non-issue. Admins would not 
need to create a new room at all when a developer gets an LDAP account. 
Instead, the developer can join their existing room, set their power level 
appropriately, then add an "alias" to the room and publish it to the room 
directory.

You can start a room e.g. on #myroom:matrix.org, and then add a 
#myroom:gnome.org alias once you get an LDAP account and publish it to the 
directory.

This is what Fractal, Sound Recorder, Podcasts, and other primarily Matrix chat 
rooms have done.
