There are some cool new webOS tools for posting to Twitter and other social media sites. One of those is Quick Post by Hedami. It allows for posting tweets that exceed 140 characters by breaking them into multiple Tweets. They are then numbered (1/2) (2/2) etc. They display properly in other webOS Twitter clients and on Twitter.com. However in Spaz they do not necessarily display in a sequential order. I am using Spaz Special Edition. Thanks in advance.

    We sort by date because that's the only reliable universal sort mechanism for a unified timeline. ID is not usable because DMs are numbered independently. We could do two sorts (date, then ID), but that would add additional processing time. I feel that users prefer faster display than guaranteed sorting within a 1-second window (dates from Twitter and other sources only record down to the second).

    Personally, I don't think this is an issue worth addressing. Someone is free to address this on their own, though.
