Title:
  Please make URL Shortening a button vs. "auto"

Status in Gwibber:
  Expired
Status in gwibber package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gwibber

  With the current "auto" shortening system the lag time between pasting
  and shortening often give the impression that something has broken,
  and attempts to re-paste the URL may happen which will only increase
  lag. Additionally, having it be an optional button (or checkbox)
  available during post times would allow you to post a URL that you
  don't necessarily want shortened--because the URL itself is the tweet
  or has meaning.

  I've also (due to the lag) posted tweets with the "keyboard" glyph in
  the tweet rather than the URL--this should at the very least be
  prevented, though there may be times when people want to post that
  glyph.

  Thanks for considering this change.
