Gwibber doesn't allow automated @-ing of multiple contacts

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please answer these questions:

* Is this reproducible?
* If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

This will help us to find and resolve the problem.

I know i'm not the reporter of the bug but it looks like the following:
1. open Gwibber
2. reply to a user/post
3 it shows a @name
4.you cant add another user to that same reply with a @ before the name.

What is expected:
being able to reply to all users that you would like and it adds a @ in front of the name

What happens:
replying to one users and to reply to the same user on the same post leaves off the @ for the second/third/ect...

Allan:
Is that the right info? if not please add your version or at the very least let us know if that is close/correct

Hello. I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. To clarify, what I meant
was, the use can't click the reply button to have many @'s to different
users in 1 tweet. Clicking "reply" on more than 1 tweet in the timeline will
erase the existing message in the test box.

The user can still manually add multiple @'s though

This bug is still not fixed on GWibber 2.91.1 on Ubuntu.

Unfortunately this still isn't present in Gwibber 3.0.0.1

Considering that most Twitter clients will (by default) reply to all users mentioned in a tweet, it would probably make sense to implement this in Gwibber. If you're having a conversation with multiple people, it isn't particularly convenient to have to remember to copy everyone else's names when you reply to a tweet.

A "Reply all" entry in the menu available when clicking on the twitter or identica icon in right of the message would be great, putting in the tweet window automatically @ and names of all users in post to whom we want to answer.
