Description
Submitted by @kegan:matrix.org
If Alice sends a message, can we reasonably assume that Alice has read all the messages before the message she sends? Given we use up-to markers rather than per-message receipts, this may be an okay assumption to make.
(Imported from https://matrix.org/jira/browse/SPEC-263)

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is identified. Start by reviewing the Matrix specification sections covering read receipts and up-to markers, then determine whether the proposed assumption should be specified and what precise protocol behavior would count as complete.
