Yes, it is impossible for me to test it since I am Twitterfree and thus have no 
API key. I try to change anything which relates to functions I modify, but if 
noone maintains it, the Twitterbridge will bit-rot.

I'd be happy to assist any attempts to make the twitterbridge work fully again.

Hmm, that might be something else ( repeating notices longer than your 
instance's max length)

In some views (they are being consolidated to have a consistent representation) 
there's a "from twitter" link (or which instance made it). Does that lead to a 
Twitter URL?
