My feeling is that it should, on the basis that it's basically the same initial dance as a federated join well yes, one argument is that it's a similar operation to /join so should have the same shape. The counterargument is that we don't need to copy over the warts. | 12:34:02 |
| *  Erik wonders if that was always the case | 12:34:15 |
| Erik | Otherwise I don't know | 12:34:23 |

I suppose if we don't copy over this specific wart, then we are restricting /peek to only working on room aliases which we can look up via a directory request | 12:34:43 |

| neilalexander | ah I see | 12:35:09 |
| * neilalexander shuts up | 12:35:12 |
| richvdh | well it turns out erik is right | 12:35:45 |
| richvdh | and despite this being totally unspecced, the content of the join request ends up in the join event | 12:36:10 |
| neilalexander | Well it does because how else would you send your display name and/or avatar? :-) | 12:36:25 |
| neilalexander | I'm pretty sure there's a sytest for that, even if not specced | 12:36:33 |
| richvdh | neilalexander: it would come from your profile | 12:36:37 |
| richvdh | ffs what a mess | 12:36:51 |
| neilalexander | I suppose I should have phrased that as "a custom display name and/or avatar" | 12:37:48 |
| richvdh | neilalexander: well, there could be a separate content param | 12:38:04 |
| neilalexander | Yeah indeed | 12:38:12 |

Wait, so we practically already have what https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2513 wants, just dressed up differently? Only for joins I think | 11:15:52 |

Wait, so we practically already have what https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/pull/2513 wants, just dressed up differently? Not really, MSC2513 wants a clean API to do that, since the current way is a bit messy... | 11:17:20 |
| Nico | At least, that's how I understand it :D | 11:17:32 |
