Problem Description
When using the "Temporary Chat" feature in Open WebUI, there is no clear visual indicator to inform users that the current conversation is temporary. This can lead to confusion, as users might not realize that their conversation will not be saved or retained after the session ends. A visual cue, such as a label or icon, would help users easily identify when they are in a temporary chat, improving the overall user experience.
Desired Solution you'd like
I would like to see a prominent visual indicator added to the chat interface when a "Temporary Chat" is active. This could be a label, icon, or banner that clearly states "Temporary Chat" or uses a recognizable symbol to signify the temporary nature of the conversation. This indicator should be placed in a noticeable location, such as at the top of the chat window or next to the chat title, ensuring users are immediately aware of the temporary status of their conversation.

This is shown above the model's name when activating temporary chat.
So there is a clear prominent visual indicator.

Thank you for pointing that out. I did notice the indicator, but I feel it could be more prominent to ensure users immediately recognize the temporary nature of the chat. Perhaps enhancing its visibility would improve the user experience further.
