The waiting room would obviously be a sidebar of the main conference.
This has benefits from the point of view of resource management,
permissions, isolation, etc.

Which is the sidebar and which is the main conference? Is the waiting
room the main conference and the rest are sidebars? I don't think so.
This to me looks like separate conferences where the user is
referred/transferred to another conference by an administrator (or key
participant or whatever the terminology is today :) )

I don't see why those two use cases could not be handled by a sidebar.

Subject: [XCON] Moving users between conferences
Moving users between sidebars has been proposed, but it would be nice
to extend this for moving users between conferences as well. Having a
"move" verb would be preferable, as a "delete user" followed by "add
user" can have the side effect of disconnecting the user from the
conference.
Two use cases:
1. Waiting room: You call a waiting room where someone controls when
you can join a specific conference.
2. Help service: An administrator can move a user to another
conference to help out with typical media problems, debugging or other
issues. Then move the user back when it has been resolved.
