RFC: Multiple homeservers

[p12tic]

The Problem

Currently nheko does not seem to support multiple homeservers. Maybe the feature is hidden somewhere in the code, but I didn't find it, though I haven't looked too hard.

Unfortunately it's hard to launch multiple instances of nheko, which means it's hard to use it in multiple home servers. I don't think this is edge case, because if one wants to use matrix.org, then one can't easily communicate on any private home servers.

The Solution

Implement multiple home server support.

For now I just want to inquire if this feature would be interesting and whether code implementing this would be accepted. I understand that at least one prototype will most likely need to be thrown away to make it align to maintainer wishes.

Matrix is federated, this means an account on matrix.org can message almost any other homeserver. So I think you have misunderstood something there, which makes you thing there is a bigger need for this than there is in practice?
