Your use case
What would you like to do? && Why would you like to do it?
I would like to export my chat messages as json of an encrypted room. Currently, element-web just exports:
This however isn't told about anywhere in the UI. This means people that use this feature as a backup for their messages might end up realizing later that half of the export is actually broken and utterly useless. It would be nice to have a number displayed of failed to export messages. As in
X of Y messages failed to export
. This would prevent false trust into this export.How would you like to achieve it?
As said above, a simple mention that some failed would be nice.
Have you considered any alternatives?
I don't think there are any viable alternatives. Telling the person upfront about issues is a simple and obvious way of communicating this. The UI should be simple on this. Especially considering EMS sells this as a product as part of their Audit Bot, seemingly if the marketing side is to trust.
