Is your suggestion related to a problem? Please describe. There are a few places require mxc:// url-s, from myroomavatar to inline images. Can't find it easily.

Describe the solution you'd like Every click-displayed (zoomed in) image may get a caption of mxc url.

Describe alternatives you've considered View image URL, cut and fabricate mxc, murmur impolite words.

Some people are using bots to display it, but it will only work for messages, not avatars and like.

myroomavatar does not require an mxc url, if you omit it, it'll give you a file upload dialog.

As it turned out it was caused by something else that the upload have failed, still, inline image requires it, as far as I see.

Some matrix clients will render non-mxc inline images too, riot just chooses not to for privacy reasons.
