Description
Sometimes I don't care about encryption and I just want things to work.
This can kind of work around the notification issue for notices (for non-confidential messages).
How would I do that:
Option on the transform function result. Like for instance `encrypt: false`.
Then sending the raw message via the client.

Research direction
Start at the transform function result and the client path that sends the message, then trace where encryption is applied for encrypted rooms. Done means the sending flow supports the requested opt-out for non-confidential webhook messages without changing the default encrypted behavior.
