Bumping this thread to give you guys the last update on this bug.

As you know, the "status" parameter is an old hack belonging to the
classic web version of twitter.com. On the other hand, Web Intents
were developed specifically for this purpose, they are optimized to
load quickly, they are mobile friendly, and we fully support them on
the API side.

We've heard your feedback: We know there are still many
implementations of the old "status" hack out there, and we understand
that it's painful to change all these URLs.

That's why we're going to seamlessly redirect these old endpoints to
the share intent. That will fix the issue with legacy integrations,
without requiring any changes on your side. Please note that we
encourage you to replace these old URLs for the Share Intent (that
will save an unnecessary 301 hit).

While we don't yet have an ETA for this change, we are getting closer
to rolling this out and wanted to give you as much advance notice as
we could.
