Feature request: conversation thread support

[shedali]

It would be great to be able to view twitter conversations.

This would provide a way to view context around a given tweet id.

I agree, this would be a great feature!

I could implement a command like, t thread TWEET_ID, which would take the specified TWEET_ID and follow the in_reply_to_status_id up to the parent. Unfortunately, there’s no public API to go the other way (from parent to children). 😦 /cc @jaakko-sf

would love that ! In addition I imagine something easy like :

 t stream notifications

Which would display notification and if it is an answer, it would prompt

run 't reply status 583544300978179584` to answer.'

@sferik and @roylockhart I did that going up to the upper stream. Check this PR out #274 . I have used this myself since I implemented that.
