I'm not going to lie: I really would adore seeing a new generation of the IRC protocol. Maybe I'm weird. Actually, I know I'm weird. But I have more positive and longer-lasting memories of time spent on IRC even into the 2000's than any other chat program.

If anything, such functionality being opt-in would be *more* transparent, not less, than other popular protocols. You know that the message was edited, but you don't know what it said after the fact. Indelibly knowing the original content encourages accountability.
If there were any uptake for an updated protocol at all, situations could not exist where you can say "You are a total motherfucker :)" and then edit it to say "Have a great day! :)", and the receiving party would be at a disadvantage if they only screenshot it after the fact.

At any rate, that's my two cents, my ten cents is free. To my admittedly non-backend-oriented coder view, there isn't an enormous amount of functionality - voice/video chat aside - that couldn't be bolted onto the IRC protocol while maintaining a back-compatible contract.

Are there currently provisions for message threading by explicitly replying to a previous message? Trying to follow concurrent discussions on a discord forum drives me crazy
