Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- Have the reply-tool enabled
- Go to a threaded discussion that contains multiple users
- Use reply-tool to reply to someone other than the original poster
- Click on the Mention a user control
What happens?:
The reply tool starts and has the greet text of "Reply to USERNAME" (see image)
When clicking on the Mention a user control the username from the first user in the section is populated, no other names are in the populated box (see image)
What should have happened instead?:
The username that is in the greet text (the person you are actually replying to) should be available in the mention a user control selection box here (likely as the default, at the least as a populated selection).
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
WMF production
Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
Users wanting to reply-to someone specific now have to manually lookup that user from the project entire account list to get the mention added. If they wanted to reply-to the original poster, they should be clicking the reply-to link on the original post.
