Description
https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/r0.1.4#get-matrix-federation-v1-user-devices-userid
It looks like Synapse always returns 200, but shouldn't 404 make more sense?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the linked Matrix server-server specification section for GET /_matrix/federation/v1/user/devices/{userId}. Compare its stated behavior with the reported Synapse response when the user or keys are missing. Done means the expected status and response behavior are decided and the specification is updated accordingly.
