Due to a small client bug I embedded a room alias in a query to GET /rooms/:room_id/state rather than the room ID.

Synapse's error result was simply to tell me 403 you're not in the room, rather than to point out that the room ID wasn't syntactically valid; as it could know from the # instead of ! symbol.
