Thanks for the patch! This should be very helpful. I have a couple of
comments, but I'm happy to just fix them up myself if you prefer.

Text should be wrapped as it is everywhere else (I wrap at 70 because
it's the default in Emacs but it doesn't have to be exact).
The room name also isn't really a quotation, so probably doesn't really
make sense to be a <q>. (I think I'd just not mark it up at all.)

The messages probably make more sense as <kbd> than <q>.
The </li> can also be omitted.

As I said above, I'm happy to just fix up the patch myself and apply it if
you'd prefer.
One more thing -- this probably makes you a (minor) copyright holder in
this file. Are you happy if I add "SPDX-FileCopyrightText: 2020
Philipp" to the copyright header at the top of the file? (You can give
me a surname if you want, or not -- up to you.) And would you prefer
your email address be included in the notice, or not (either is fine)?
