When screensharing in speaker view mode, the screensharer cannot see anymore other participants webcam that are streaming it in the participants stripe. To get back their webcam stream, the screensharer must switch to grid view mode.

Describe the solution you'd like
While screensharing the speaker should be able to see participants webcam streams in the participants stripe.

Describe alternatives you've considered
You can also follow a user to be able to see his / her stream.

Additional context
This scenario has been shared by a regular Talk user who gives remote classes. She reported that she wants to see the webcam stream while alumns ask questions and she had to switch off screensharing temporarily for that. I'll tell her that she can follow the user as well without leaving screensharing, still her point makes sense to me.
