Template power levels event for quick copy-pasting

The main point I do this for is users users

{
    "users": {
      "@Ciblia:matrix.org": 100,
      "@aminda:matrix.org": 100,
      "@mikaela:pirateriot.net": 100,
      "@mikaela:liberta.casa": 100,
      "@mikaela.suomalainen:matrix.org": 100,
      "@mikaela:tchncs.de": 100,
      "@aminda:tedomum.net": 100,
      "@aminda:pikaviestin.fi": 100,
      "@mikaela.matterbridge:tedomum.net": 100,
      "@mikaela.matterbridge:converser.eu": 100,
      "@leon:the-apothecary.club": 100
    }
},

Completeish event

This has the rest event in two forms, but doesn’t duplicate the above.

Reasonable version

This is not the Element/Synapse default as that would be pointless to list.

    "ban": 50,
    "events": {
        "im.vector.modular.widgets": 50,

}

• m.room.power_levels is set to 50 so moderators can raise others to moderators for example matrix-appservice-irc, which I would then give PL51 for ops syncing. On matrix side immune mods, could be PL52.
• invite commonly defaults to 50, but I haven’t seen abuse through it

Medium version

{
    "ban": 50,
    "events": {
        "im.vector.modular.widgets": 50,
        "m.room.avatar": 50,
        "m.room.canonical_alias": 50,
        "m.room.encryption": 100,
        "m.room.history_visibility": 99,
        "m.room.name": 50,
        "m.room.power_levels": 50,
        "m.room.retention": 100,
        "m.room.server_acl": 100,
        "m.room.tombstone": 100,
        "m.room.topic": 50,
        "m.space.child": 50
    },
    "events_default": 0,
    "historical": 100,
    "invite": 50,
    "kick": 50,
    "redact": 50,
    "state_default": 50,
    "users": {
        // READ THE BEGINNING OF THE FILE FOR THIS SECTION AND PROPER FORMAT! OR SEE YOUR CURRENT EVENT!
    },
    "users_default": 0
}

• Otherwise “Reasonable version”, but
• Only moderators can invite
