Description
I think we need to add a feature to reply to selected messages, used in case you need to reply to a small part of the message that someone else sent to the channel/group or DM
I think we should add this function to the right-click action, after highlighting the message line that you want to reply from someone in the channel/group, let's say there are 10 people in the channel/group, how to let all members in the channel/group know which member's message is quoted.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the message right-click action and the message-line highlighting behavior described in the issue, using the attached screenshots as the expected interaction reference. Done means a selected portion of a message can be replied to and the channel, group, or DM clearly shows which member’s message was quoted.
