What this needs next is an implementation. Anyone is welcome to provide one :) |

Not really sure if we need to use unstable prefixes for the warning types, since it's already within an unstable field.

unstable prefixes are required here because the meanings could change still, and developers will need to then do slightly more complicated lookups/matching. For example, if m.nsfw changed scope, the unstable implementation may need to create a whole new field instead of a town.robin.msc3725.nsfw.v2 type.

Here is a (probably bad) implementation of this MSC in gomuks web: tulir/gomuks#533

Currently, this proposal allows for both the type and description to be unspecified, which doesn't make sense. I think that we should require at least one to be specified.

Maybe mention here that there can be other values (as long as they have unstable prefixes).
