Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Reproduce with Dendrite-monolith 0.13.0+ in Docker, PostgreSQL, and Element Android using the listed server-domain steps, then inspect the request handling and container behavior around the unrecognized-request response. Done means Element Android accepts the custom server URL and login succeeds without the error.
