#1621
Today we don't quote previous responses because Gmail shows a conversation anyway, so we only need to render one message at a time, without any quoted text.
This however becomes a problem when someone is added to a convo half-way, because they have no context (no previous messages), only the latest reply.
I would be good to start quoting the previous message, which is tracked in #873. But before we do that, we have to have a mechanism to hide such quoted content when rendering a message. Eg:
this is my reply
> some other
> quoted text
>
> > gets very

Should become:
- only lines at the bottom of the email are eligible to hide (starting with
> )
- should be replaced similar to what Gmail does, with a
... button. The button color should probably use standard FlowCrypt green bg, with white text
- clicking it will show the whole quoted text, including the
> on each line
- Remember to resize the iframe after showing the quoted part
This work will likely be done somewhere in elements/pgp_block.ts
