I see two UI suggestions:
1) People may find it confusing to see the original author's name in
their list, as it's not expected. I think it's better to show the
name of the retweeter, rather than the original tweeter (although a
link to the original tweet, in the form of the author's name, would be
fine and expected).
2) A larger issue with the UI will be the ability to have an option to
do one of three things:
a) use the original tweeter's text in it's entirety.
b) not use the original tweeter's text and instead, use the
retweeter's comment - or -
c) a mix of (a) and (b)
Hope this helps.
