New Spotlighting Behavior not Good for Webinars

When the webinar host spotlights a panelist, this now reflects on all of the panelists' screens too. It didn't used to work like this. This is not a good change. Panlists do not like this. Many panelists want to see their self-view at all times so that they can remain in camera frame. If the webinar host spotlights a panelist, then all of the other panelists lose their self view. Spotlighting should only affect attendees in a webinar, not the panelists. Zoom, please tell your product team to change this behavior back to how it used to work so that spotlighting doesn't change the panelist screen.
