Invisible crypto: allow the user to review recent changes to other users' identities
Part of https://github.com/element-hq/element-meta/issues/2491, itself part of Invisible crypto.
If a user dismisses an identity change banner (cf #2492) too quickly, they may wish to review the list of recently-seen changes.
XXX Questions:
- How far back does the history need to go? Is “since last client restart” sufficient?
- If a user rotates their identity twice, should they appear twice on the history list? It might be indicative of something fishy?
- Should this be per-room, or global? If it’s per-room, should users who only changed their identity before they joined the room, or since they left the room, be included?
- We don't yet have designs for this.
We've agreed we don't need this, for now at least.
