When I changed my username from @poseurtech to @abraham all of the @replies
continued to point to my user_id. My assumption is you will still see the
tweet as the @reply seems to be tied to accounts not usernames.

 Riddle me this, what happens in this scenario:

 I'm following user A and user B
 1. User A sends an @reply to user B.
 2. User B changes his name.
 3. Tweet is going to user B's old name.

 Will I see the tweet?

This change is not owned by the API team. If you test this, please report
