There's a new Looking For Group channel?

So I have this thing where sometimes when a battle doesn't go as smoothly as expected I get a bit twitchy in my attempts to target the right enemy or hit the right button that I do exactly the wrong things. Sometimes that ends up with me accidentally deleting a chattab somehow.

So while I was fixing up a new Global tab yesterday, I noticed a new channel in the list. A Looking For Group channel. There doesn't seem to be any way to speak in the channel or anything to read in it, so I assume it's a new channel that was meant to be fully introduced later (in I20 maybe?), but got slipped in early before it was fully implenented.

So what I'm wondering is, did anyone else notice this channel and know anything more about it?

Don't have any more information, but I did see a quite a few people discussing it in Global channels back at the tail end of beta and when i18 first hit. the prevailing theory was basically the same as yours, that it was part of an upcoming new system.
