Description

This issue has been migrated from [#3848](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3848).

---

This means that if I try to follow a permalink for a room and my server doesn't have that event locally, the permalink fails. This is pretty awful UX - see https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/1230.
