The "Reply" buttons were active when viewing an old revision of the
page (&oldid=1234). This was probably unintentional, and it would undo
all more recent comments if you saved yours.
However, I think it would be a useful feature. You often end up
viewing old revisions when reviewing changes to pages from your
watchlist or email notifications.
Now, when the reply widget is launched from an old revision, it will
try to find the relevant parent comment in the latest revision of the
page, and edit that revision when inserting the reply. If the parent
comment is gone, it shows a useful error message.

Consequences of this are visible in the test cases:
* (en) Tech News posts are not detected.
Examples: "21:22, 1 July 2019 (UTC)", "21:42, 29 July 2019 (UTC)"
* (en) Comments by users who customize the timestamp are not detected.
Examples: "10:49, 28 June 2019 (UTC)", "21:34, 14 July 2019 (UTC)"
* (en) Comments with signatures missing a username are not detected.
This sometimes happens if a comment is accidentally signed with
'~~~~~' (five tildes), which only inserts the timestamp.
Examples: "17:17, 27 July 2019 (UTC)", "10:25, 29 July 2019 (UTC)"
* (pl) A lone timestamp at the beginning of a thread is not detected.
It's not part of a post, it was added to aid automatic archiving.
Example: "21:03, 18 paź 2018 (CET)"

Compensates for vertical padding on paragraphs.
Match source mode padding to that of a TextInputWidget.

The most common case of edit conflicts on talk pages is several people
responding to the same comment at the same time.[citation needed]
We can easily resolve this case by fetching the latest revision of the
page and re-running our code to insert a reply on it.
When we can't insert a reply, that probably means the parent comment
was deleted or moved, so display an error message indicating that
instead of the generic one.

Previously, we only built the Parsoid document once (on page load) and
kept it around forever. Every time we tried to post a reply, it was
added to this document, even if it wasn't saved due to some error.
This resulted in duplicate replies when the user managed to actually
save.
Now we only keep around the HTML string and some metadata fetched from
the API, and rebuild the actual document every time before adding a
reply.

This ensures that expired tokens are refreshed and retried, while
invalid tokens caused by the user logging in/out cause an error. We
should think about displaying a better interface for the latter case.

Ignore the horizontal position of the comments' bounding boxes entirely.
It can be crazy because of de-indentation in the middle of the comment,
and even just text formatting with padding/margins (e.g. `<code>`) can
make it look weird. Just draw the rulers based on detected indentation.

Native Range objects are automatically updated when the DOM elements
they refer to are affected (e.g. detached from the DOM, or their offset
changes because of siblings being added/removed).
This seemed harmless or maybe even slightly useful, but it turns out
it conflicts with VisualEditor, which has to wrap the entire page in a
new DOM node when it opens (and unwrap it when it closes), effectively
temporarily detaching it from the DOM, which destroys all our ranges.
Just use a plain object that stores the same data as a Range. And when
we need to use Range's API, we can simply construct a temporary one.

By default, DiscussionTools loads on all talk pages when the extension
is installed. This can now be disabled by setting the configuration
option `$wgDiscussionToolsEnable=false`.
To test DiscussionTools, one can now use the query parameter
`?dtenable=1`, which allows it to be loaded on any wikitext page
(overriding the config option).

This sets up the tags:
* discussiontools
* discussiontools-reply
* discussiontools-edit (not yet implemented)
* discussiontools-newsection (not yet implemented)
The tags are flagged as user-addable, because otherwise they can't be
passed through to the VE API (at least, not without editing it so that
it explicitly knows about them, which seems like a strange
interdependency). It's assumed that letting users who know about the
tags add them to random changes via action=editchangetags would be
(a) the pettiest and most inconsequential vandalism possible, and
(b) unlikely to happen.
This relies upon I2c1d0f8d69bc03e5c1877c790247e165f160e966 in
VisualEditor to not also tag the edits with `visualeditor`.
