Subgraph already supports this, we just need to settle on syntax and wire up frontend UI.

Current approach uses an ID inside a blockquote syntax like

> chirp:000:000:000

Alternatively, I'm considering using the at-mention syntax (e.g. @chirp:000:000:000) or just full canonical URLs like https://chirp.city/_/chirp:000:000:000. The URL approach is nice because it would mean the plaintext view of the message is still somewhat usable (you can click through to the message being replied to). They're just a little long.
