I think we need {{ping|peter}}'s input here. [[User:Ed|Ed]] 2020-04-01 12:00 (UTC)If Bob joins the conversion later and types "I too would value input from @Peter" then "peter" will not appear in the local autocomplete list if he had not yet replied.

For the sender, if the discussion is quite long and has several “sub-discussions”, it could lead to a confusing situation if someone has yet to answer in some sub-discussion, and thus doesn’t show up in some other. (Even in the situation listed in the description—i.e. without sub-discussions—, user education is needed to explain why that name is not on the list, because that’s quite not obvious at first.)
As a receiver, I would like to get all mentions—if I get multiple notifications from a page, I know that my input would be much appreciated there.
