Description

Your Account Type

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. In some conversation, click "reply" to some message
  2. Note that the replied-to message appears as citation above the message editor field
  3. Enter some text as reply, don't send
  4. Switch to a different conversation
  5. Switch back to the conversation with the draft reply

Problem

The reference to the "Replied-To" message is gone.

What is the expected behaviour?

The draft reply has still the citation/reference to the replied-to message. The behaviour is as expected when step 3 is left out.
I would expect that the whole message as well as any references/citations are preserved when switching conversations
