[Bug 546556] Re: Links Truncated
To add to my comment #11, I'd suggest that instead of calling them "old"
and "new/native" style retweets, which some users may find confusing, it
might be wise to turn the existing retweet into native, perhaps with a
confirmation similar to the Twitter web interface, and add an "Edit and
retweet" function for the "old" style. That shouldn't be too much menu
clutter.

I recieved a tweet that had a bit.ly link in it... The link was
shortened by a few characters ( ... ) but when clicking on the link in
gwibber... It sent me to the shortened address.
Here is the tweet as viewed at twitter.com:
