Ok, this feels like it should be obvious and and I'm just doing something stupid (cf. "jargon file what's a spline").

How is quoting and replying INTENDED to work in federation? If I reply, it tags the author of the toot I'm replying to, but it doesn't seem to contain any link to the actual contents I'm responding to or augmenting.

How would a follower of either one of us (or the original author, if they're prolific and I'm not replying to their latest toot) find the context?
