+
+          This property is the value of the `membership` property of the
+          requesting user's [`m.room.member`](/client-server-api#mroommember)
+          state at the point of the event, including any changes caused by the
+          event. If the user had yet to join the room at the time of the event
+          (i.e, they have no `m.room.member` state), this property is set to
+          `leave`.
+
+          It is recommended that homeservers SHOULD populate this property
+          wherever practical, but they MAY omit it if necessary (for example,
+          if calculating the value is expensive, servers might choose to only
+          implement it in encrypted rooms). The property is *not* normally populated
+          in events pushed to application services via the application service transaction API
+          (where there is no clear definition of "requesting user").
