Description
Currently, every client platform must implement the push rules logic in order to manage in-app notifications.
So, there is N implementations of them which seems risky in term of bug.
Could we keep the logic in one place: the homeserver and make the homeserver notify clients with additional information in events coming down the events stream?

The work needs a concrete specification scope and agreement on the event data and behavior; done would be an agreed, implementable protocol change.
