Description

@aero31aero

Recently, in zulip/zulip#10243 we merged support for the following mention syntax to zulip/zulip:

@**Full Name|1234(id)**

This is to allow us to mention users with the same full name, and is optional. The web app intelligently adds the new syntax only when the users have the same full name, and uses the simpler syntax for others.

Example: https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/7-test-here/topic/user.20mention

We should:

  1. Add support for this syntax in the terminal client.
  2. Ensure that it is behind a feature flag because it would break mentions in older servers/any non CZO server for now.
