I don't know exactly how long it's done that either but I don't think it's been extremely long - perhaps less than a year?
I just edited my original post to reflect a test I did, which supports your theory. I guess I've never even thought of doing quotes from different threads, as normally I'm responding to something in the thread I'm in. However, I can see how it could be useful.
And I think you're right re: the timeline. It's something I've just noticed recently.
Thx!
Cheers.
