Matrix to Matrix bridge (multi-account)

[turt2live]

Reference: matrix-org/synapse#2328

This is a bit more complicated to implement as it requires lying to clients. The bridge (or gateway, or whatever) would have to expose a matrix-compatible client API that is used by clients to connect. This would then log in to the other configured accounts and aggregate the results.

The user would probably need to set a "primary account" that is used when joining new rooms, and client support may be needed if something goes wrong. Ie: "Pick an account" dialog.

Perhaps this could also be implemented only on the client side that the client allows you to log into several at once and displays them togeather like it was one?

This will probably come with Matrix Purple Bridge.

@turt2live Can you remove the (multi-account) part from the issue title, because this is not about multi-account, but about bridging a Matrix account to the main Matrix account (with keeping a Matrix client connected to only one main Matrix account), like any other types of bridge do (eg Telegram).

[turt2live]

This is still aimed at multi-account.
