Just thinking about the following being an option to help support those that are remote users.
During long meetings, it's not uncommon for attendees to step away briefly to attend to personal needs or handle pressing matters. Making an announcement each time someone leaves can disrupt the flow of the meeting. However, this absence can create a risk of missing important questions or comments directed towards the absent individual. To mitigate this risk, an "away" or "be right back" icon could be utilized in the same vein as the "raise hand" feature, allowing attendees to signal their temporary absence.
