Pretty good write up, I think it's important to clearly know where chat data is stored and having it on the Guild Instance is probably best. I also think there should be a method to signal a domain change. Matrix doesn't have a way to change a servers domain so you basically have to start a new server, and that really sucks. With encryption keys you should be able to signal that a name change has taken place and update all records to reflect that.
edit: it would also be nice to allow user transfers, it might be best to limit transfers to 2 online instances where the users current Home Instance initiates the transfer and the destination Instance confirms, this would move all private chats to the new Home Instance and updates the messages associated with the transferred user to point the the new Home Instance. The old Home Instance should maintain the old username as unusable for a time and respond to any requests involving the old user with a "Transferred" status and redirect to the user on their new Home Instance.

@rennr is it possible we could have communication on the official fluxer dev federation channel? also on the fluxer blog post roadmap it is mentioned that and no instance will store data from outside its own., i want to talk about this with the devs and you to see how literality this should be taken as your DMs are replicated on both the Guest Instance and the Home Instance, from my view, goes against it
