Reviewers: Although this has team review requested, I would appreciate particular review from @ara4n as the proposal author and @KitsuneRal as having gone through the gauntlet. Feedback in addition is more than appreciated.

Disclaimer: Although the implementation is lacking in areas (see below), it is believed by the spec core team that lazy-loading has enough benefits to be added to the spec, as per the MSC guidelines.


Implementation references:

Notable lacks of implementation:

Spec references:

Alterations from the proposals:

  • The MSCs are unclear of what scope "redundant" is defined under. Written as "across any of the supported endpoints".
  • Clarification that servers and clients should be careful when dealing with historical data. Unsure how Synapse/Riot handle this, if at all.
  • Unclear if summary should be required. The implementation only does so when lazy-loading is active, however this seems like a bug. Written as required so that clients can use m.heroes to name the room.

(note: due to these proposals being older Google Doc MSCs, they have had the alterations described here represented in the applicable threaded comments instead of the body of the proposal. This is to hopefully more clearly represent the changes.)

The options also work on /messages
Note: This makes assumptions on what the TODO comment in Synapse means: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/e26e6b3230f0b55376f0f3bf823dd789ac7064d0/synapse/handlers/pagination.py#L262

Due to lack of implementation, it is assumed that using the same filter across multiple calls to /sync OR /messages will result in the redundant members being excluded in the next request. For example, calling /sync, then /messages which returns some members, then /sync again will exclude the members due to them being in /messages.

generally looks good. I'm a bit hazy about some of this stuff though :/

no, because if they are omitted then the client should interpret it as "no change".

Shoving this back into the queue to get a checkmark (hopefully) from someone on the team. There's a few people who have reviewed this, so picking on someone isn't super obvious.

i'm happy with it from my pov fwiw, but i guess my rewrite needs some review if someone can face it.

arguably this is fine to merge as I reviewed your edits, but I think a third opinion would be good given the amount of review on here.
