Currently things get really ugly if you have fleets of users who haven't specified avatars (especially for IRC bridged users etc).
Let's give everyone github-style identicons - https://gist.github.com/richardkundl/9071847 looks like quite a fun implementation, although it'd make more sense to generate them in python serverside rather than in javascript clientside. Eitherway, should be a quick fun hack to make the userlists less ugly and the bubbles more easily differentiatable.

Whilst we have an API, we're not using it anywhere.
As per RL discussion, Synapse should explicitly create identicon images as the avatar for users who sign-up and don't specify an avatar. This ensures that the avatar of a user is consistent no matter who views it. We can shove a URI fragment on the mxc URI to show that it's been automatically assigned, to allow exotic clients to override the avatar should they desire.

body: Also, we should go through and manually set identicons as the avatars for users on matrix.org who didn't specify avatars.

body: this all happened. (other than historical ones for matrix.org, which probably doesn't matter that much).
