Research direction

Start by reproducing encryption of a pasted message to an existing Twitter user and compare the recognized user ID with the expected account shown in the screenshot. Trace the user-recognition path and determine what successful matching should report; done means the existing user is recognized with the correct ID and the regression is covered by an appropriate test.
