Greetings community,

I've experienced a problem recently that I can't find an "official"
answer to.  I'm attempting to use the update rest api and I'm passing
in "in_reply_to=XXXXXX", but it's being ignored.  If I include a
"@user" where user is the owner of the tweet id I passed in, it works
fine.

The official api documentation makes no note of this and I see that
there was talk of not requiring the @user here(http://
groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/
f009c76d17199084?pli=1) but I also see someone complaining about the
same problem here (http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-
talk/browse_thread/thread/4ed686abbf59164b).

What's twitter's official stance?  If it is required to make the "in
reply to link", it should be noted in the api documentation.

Thanks!

Colt
