• Media

  • Caching

    • What effect will it have on GIFs? Can we set cache:false on them or get
      the frame count once they're cached?

  • Use HBox for Profile

  • Banners

  • Composer

  • Room Sidepane

    • Hide when window too small
    • Also save/load its size
    • Is auto-sizing actually needed, or can we just set a default manual size?

  • When qml syntax highlighting supports ES6 string interpolation, use that

• Fixes

  • In the "Leave me" room, "join > Hi > left" aren't combined

    • Multiple messages are currently copied out of order

  • Pressing backspace in composer sometimes doesn't work

    room, then while keys are being shared sending one with another account,
    then sending one with the first account again

    • Make invite icon blink if there's no one but ourself in the room,

      tooltip or clicked on it once

  • Restoring UI state:

    • Composer content
    • Which element was focused
    • Room member filter field

  • Prevent others from having a too similar hue as us, or our own accounts
    from sharing a too similar hue

  • Prevent starting multiple instances, causes problems with E2E DB
    (sending new messages from second instances makes them undecryptable to
    first instance until it's restarted)

    • Could be fixed by "listening for a RoomKeyEventthat has the same
      session id as the undecryptable MegolmEvent, then retry decrypting
      the message with decrypt_event()" - poljar
