Description
Expected behaviour
User may see current status of "Reading confirmation" request. Is it set to the currently edited message or not. The best behaviour is to make some icon and show it in a header in right corner (where usually star is shown in view mode; but here in edit mode).
Actual behaviour
User cannot understand is "Reading confirmation" request is setuped or not.
Steps to reproduce
- Just try to create message and setup and/or remove "Reading confirmation".
Environment

Research direction
Start by tracing the Android message-compose/edit screen and the existing path for creating or removing a "Reading confirmation" request. Confirm how the current message state is exposed to the UI; done means the edit view clearly shows whether the request is set, using an icon in the header area, and updates when the request is added or removed.
