@ -75,6 +75,13 @@ Unlike notifications, it is not possible to not have the homeserver provide an
unread count for a given room. A way to do this will be described in a separate
MSC.
A known limitation of this proposal is that it does not cover highlights: a message
containing text that is supposed to highlight (i.e. that should impact a
`highlight_count` counter in sync responses) will be counted in the same way as
a message that does not highlight. This means that clients cannot rely on the
`unread_count` field described in this proposal to decide whether there is a
highlighting message in a room.
