retweeted tweets are displayed multiple times

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Choose a tweet in your timeline
2. Press its "retweet" button
3. The retweeted tweet appears at top ofthe timeline

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When retweeting a tweet already displayed in the timeline, it shouldn't 
re-display it with the "retweeted by You" mention, just add this mention to the 
original tweet (like it used to be in the past).
Also, the same thing happens if someone you follow retweets something already 
displayed in your timeline, a new tweet with "retweeted by Friend" appears, it 
shouldn't

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system and
what Desktop Environment?
Operating system: ArchLinux
Desktop environment: Openbox
Hotot: latest version from mercurial repo
Python: 2.7.2

Please provide any additional information below.
This behaviour is quite recent, it used to behave correctly in the past, but i 
couldn't tell when this started happening exactly.

It occurs when real time updating is enable. it's a experimental feature. I 
need talk with others about how retweeted tweets are displayed.

they display several times because there are different people retweet the 
original one. so they are different tweet in deed.
