List of users not to send out device list updates for when they register new devices. This is useful to handle bot accounts. This is undocumented as its mostly a hack to test on matrix.org. Note: This will still send out device list updates if the device is later updated, e.g. end to end keys are added.

This makes me think that the config should be under experimental_features. Should it be, even though it's not an MSC?

Ermh, good Q, my gut says no TBH, but 🤷

I may reword the changelog to say "temporary" or "hidden" option instead then, as "experimental" sounds like it should live under experimental_features, though I understand not expanding the scope of that config option past MSCs.

...although, when attempting to insert those suggestions myself into the changelog, neither are as good as experimental.
I'm happy to keep it as "experimental", but I'd like to ensure we don't forget about it and never document it. Could you make a quick issue to come back whether we want to keep and document/remove it in the future?
