Description

some ideas for displaying the in reply to `` description and content in a (probably) nicer way:

- [ ] link the whole `` to the original message so a tap on it scrolls up the message history (if necessary) and highlights the original message
- [ ] don't display nested replys (in longer discussions I don't wan't to have everything from above again in the new message, but just the last message the reply refers to; when I wan't to read preceding messages content I can scroll up / click on the reply to be scrolled up to the corresponding message)
- [ ] only display the first part of the quoted text (maybe also in a little bit smaller font size) to prevent reply messages to fill up a huge amount of space, only because the original message was a long one
