[Bug 559211] Re: [wishlist] ability to repeat / retweet with a different account, or more than one account

I'm not entirely convinced this is a duplicate of the bug "repeats do
not honour send permissions".

This is not about permissions, it's about being able to click "repeat"
or "reply" on a message and choosing from which account you want to do
so, and not be "locked" to the account which originally got the message.

Best example is if you have a twitter and identi.ca account set up: if
you post mainly through identi.ca, but get replies through twitter, and
want to click "reply" but then have the choice to reply via identi.ca,
and not twiter.

Don't know if I am very clear.. sorry.

Title:
  [wishlist] ability to repeat / retweet with a different account, or
  more than one account

Status in Gwibber:
  New

Bug description:
  I use Identi.ca to automatically send notices to Twitter so I don't
  have to worry about updating both.

  Right now, Gwibber lacks an option to retweet something from my Twitter stream to my Identi.ca stream.
  This might be related to the “native retweet” implemented by both Twitter and Identi.ca to keep track of context, but rather than having to copy the notice and repeat it manually, it would be nice to have a choice of which network to retweet the notice to.

  Also, one may want to repeat some notices to or from a more personal
  Facebook account and not other notices, so having the ability to
  select which network to repeat to seems an interesting one to me.

  Basically, one may want to repeat a notice from one network to all
  their networks or just some. I think it would be a nice option for
  gwibber to have.

  Thanks!
