UserContent

===========

A way to render user generated content with a different origin to the main application.

This can be used to avoid XSS attacks.

This is used by Riot to display the download button for encrypted attachments

in end-to-end encrypted chats. See

https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/blob/master/README.md#configjson for

instructions on how to host your own version of this.

This is not an ideal solution for Riot: see

https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/6173 for status on replacing

this with something else.
