Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in an Android chat using the listed steps: send a message, reply to it, and edit the reply. Trace the edit flow to determine why the reply quote is included in the edit box. Done means the edit box contains only the reply text while the reply context remains outside the editable content.
