It would be nice to be able to enter e.g. https://twitter.com/wilto/status/264926089435029506, have the app follow the reply chain to load all previous tweets (similar to @gf3’s http://twatlr.com/thread/264926089435029506), and then add all those tweets to a custom timeline.

Oh, I really like that idea. I wanted to create a CTL from threads like that a couple of times. I have to check if the API has an efficient way to get the complete conversation, though.

@passy It doesn't.

Well, there's a /conversation/show.json endpoint. It's private, though.
