i.e. showing them as being from the original author.
This matches the behaviour on twitter.com and is also more logical.

The problem is to find a good way for the message style to add the "Retweeted by @xyz" info. Minimal (but also a bit hidden) possibility: in the tooltip?

Another benefit would be that RTs of tweets ending in links don't have broken links (as they often do at the moment).

That was bug 955101 (bio 1672).
