Description

0. Open browser dev tools
1. Receive an encrypted `m.image` message with a regular image and a thumbnail; do *not* yet open the full-size image.
2. Note that the full-size image is downloaded as soon as the message appears on the timeline. This seems a bit redundant, when only the thumbnail is shown on-screen.
