Barry, please pay a little bit more attention to where you're clicking. I think you'll find that it's not "magic whitespace" but really you can click almost anywhere in the message which causes it to expand, showing replies, reply text box, retweet button, etc. Exceptions to "almost anywhere" include: clicking on the avatar at left will open a browser displaying that tweet/fb post, or clicking on an underlined link will open that link in a browser. But other than that, you should be able to click on the message body, the message title, or the margins, and have the message expand and the retweet icon become visible.
I also agree that we need a better icon for the RT. The curved arrow doesn't really indicate what it is that it does. My first impression of that icon was 'open in browser' (because in my mind an arrow pointing forward-but-slightly-up means "enlarge" or "open in a larger thing") so when I clicked on it I was surprised to find a retweet took place. Ken, maybe instead of allowing clicking anywhere to expand, we put some kind of "downward chevron" icon on an explicit button that makes everything expand.
