Edit history

Problem

You can see someone editted a message but cannot see what they edited.

Proposal

History for editted messages. When you click on the "(edited)" text it can show a list of the previous edits for messages. Or can be hidden in the context menu. Button could show when holding shift. This would be just as useful for moderation as it would be for normal users.

Notes

• "Not supporting it allows for some nasty surprises, where Mallory writes a message, Bob replies, and Mallory changes their message to make Bobs reply look bad."
