[Bug 1058484] [NEW] Please add ability to answer his own posts

 

Public bug reported:

Hello,

There is a feature I miss in Gwibber : the possibility to answer to his
own posts.

It is interesting in Status.net and Identi.ca accounts, as they have the
option now, when you reply to someone (XXXX), the word @XXXX is no more
written inside the message, leaving all the 140 signs available to write
it and more clean.

It can be strange to write to himself, so without the @XXXX to its own
login it seems like a normal tweet.

But what is interesting when we have to post many dents for a same
subject is that it creates a discussion in Status.net that can be
linked, with all the messages in tree view. So it still keeps the
context (reply, conversation thread).

Ex: http://identi.ca/conversation/88164272

And Gwibber respects this behavior : if I answer to someone in Identi.ca
and delete the @XXXX, message is well posted as an answer even if the
"@XXXX" does not appear.

Gwibber is missing this feature : when I go to the menu of my own
tweets, I can not "reply" myself.

Also on Twitter site it's possible to answer to his own tweets, even if
in this time the @XXXX remains.

So do you think you could add this feature to Gwibber ? Thanks in
advance.
