Read #38175 Pick up a Lab task

Most members concern how the messaging gateway recognizes commands: several for Matrix propose accepting bang-prefixed (!) commands as aliases, and two cover a configurable command prefix to avoid platform conflicts. The configurable-prefix items are broader than the Matrix-specific ones, but they share the theme of command prefix handling.
