Description
Hello, I'm trying to implement an ignore function and ran into a bit of a problem
how to reproduce:
User A starts ignoring User B
User B sends several messages to User A
User A does not receive any messages from User B
then user A will unignore user B
User A received several messages sent by User B while User B was being ignored
sometimes I can get the last message, sometimes all messages, It depends on how quickly I unignore after the ignored user has sent a message
matrix js sdk version: "matrix-js-sdk": "^28.0.0"
Also attached 2 screens made in Element app
expected result: According to the documentation, the user should not receive any messages sent by him while ignoring the user
any thoughts on how to fix this?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the ignore, message-send, and unignore sequence described against matrix-js-sdk version 28, then trace the SDK's handling of ignored users and later timeline updates. Done means messages sent while a user is ignored remain unavailable after unignoring, consistently across the reported timing variations.
