Retweets keep their 'photo' field #27

I noticed retweets 'lose' their content field, and only have a repost-of field, that you can lookup via the rels. But: when the retweeted tweet has a photo, the retweet also has a photo property. Is that on purpose or a bug?

An example of a repost with photo: https://twitter.com/aukehulst/status/820039442773798912

hmm interesting. I don't think that was intentional, and is likely a side effect of the fact that Twitter includes the RT'd photo as part of the RT post, probably for clients to have a good fallback. I think I will remove it from the XRay output, since the photo is already present in the repost-of object.
