Question thread #117

[pauamma]

It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

I just noticed that, in the email copy of a comment that I posted, the "You replied to" metadata at the top includes the text "[locked]" after the link when it's a reply to a locked post.

That's probably been there a while, but I noticed it today because I had the thought of "is this a thing that would be appropriate to forward?" and saw that and didn't have to go looking to find whether it was a private context.

So, to make this a question: Who should I be saying "thank you" to for that little feature?

Searching through git log -p says it's commit 556bd97b6a7f58e0fe61c7fc3135aee86e2cade0 by kaberett back in February 2016. While on this topic, I'll note that in general, you need to remove the reply-by-email parts of the comment notification email before forwarding it.
