Ability to reply to a specific message in a chat thread

I would like the ability to reply to a specific comment within a thread. Especially now with Guest access and Team sizes sure to grow and expand.

I was in a "Conversation" with several people the other day and the problem was that people kept starting new threads rather than replying to the thread. This was because the threads themselves were quite long, and the only reply button was way, way down, past dozens of other comments by several people.

Sometimes you just want to reply to one specific message/comment in a thread rather than at the end of the thread to answer one question or comment on something in-line with the conversation.

This is especially important when dipping in and out of conversations or moving between threads and now between Teams tenants/accounts.
