Feature Request: Support replies

[vkoser]

Would be nice in the future if the messages view could support replies similar to the mobile applications

Yes, this would be a great addition. I've been thinking about how to implement this and I think we'd need to add message selection to the scrolling in the message pane, like the other panes. We could also add info (time, hops etc) to messages via a popup. Shouldn't be too hard.

The slightly harder part is how to visualize that a message is a reply to a previous message without using too much screen real estate. Ideas welcome.

Maybe something like this

[17:03:56] >> [7] c760: test copy
[17:04:44] >> [7] c760: (fat fingers) 
[17:03:56] ++ [+] c760: test copy
[17:36:14]        >> [5] << NAP1: It a little late but I copy....

here it repeats the message replied to and just places ++ [+] or similar since it's just pulling the original message you are replying to forward, then the actual reply can show as normal, BUT indent under the repeated message you are replying to so it's clear it's a reply.

Just an idea, but that would be clear to me
