Matrix currently has a significant moderation loophole, thanks to
invites. Right now, anyone can invite anyone to a room - and clients
like NeoChat will gladly display these rooms to them and even give you
a notification.
However, this creates a pretty easy attack since room names and avatars
are arbitrary and this is a known vector of harassment in the Matrix
community. There's currently no tools to block this server-side, so
let's try to improve the situation where we can.
This adds a new setting to the Security page, wherein it allows you to
block invites from people you don't share a room with. This prevents the
notification from appearing and NeoChat will attempt to leave the room
immediately.
Since this depends on MSC 2666 - a currently unstable feature - the
server may not support it and NeoChat will disable the setting in this
case.
Update the user model so it also sorts by power level and update how we initialize the model to improve performance.
The following is also changed:
- Store a single `UserListModel` in `RoomManager` and use it for everything, this means we don't create extra models (incluiding the long initialisation for each in big rooms)
- By using the single model once it has loaded the users of the new room opening and closing the draw now happens instantly (previously the model would have to be loaded every time the drawer was opened).
- To stop the initial loading and room change of Neochat slowing down (as the `UserListModel` would be loaded before the `TimelineView` is shown) the initialisation of the model is delayed until the `TimelineView` has loaded. This prioritises showing some messages in the timeline over populating the model so in large rooms the user list will initially be blank, but this keeps the initial load snappier.
Fix the InlineMessages for the room upgrades in RoomSettings, they should show even if we aren't currently in the room. Resolve resource can join the predecessor/sucessor if required.
Closesnetwork/neochat#618
Use new KirigamiAddons ConfigurationsView as a replacement for
CategorizedSettings. Fix some issues on desktop when running Qt 6.8
and some less recent issues on mobile.
Visually this looks the same.
Depends on https://github.com/quotient-im/libQuotient/pull/695
Currently basic just to show a working implementation using RoomMember. Currently only the room event and search models are moved over. Will change everything else over once the dependent pr is complete.
Add a model for managing permissions (power levels) in rooms. This gets rid of a whole bunch of boiler plate in NeoChat and as a bonus makes it easy to add a feature to allow setting the permission level for any event.
A category won't be shown if there are no relevant IDs (will add the ability to add new ones later).
