'Move' permissions in Chat

I think this feature should (if technically feasible) add the behavior of automatically merging multiple chat messages into one forum reply, assuming they’re by the same author and within a certain timeframe of each other.

People using chat (including myself) often write a stream of thought chunked into paragraphs, sentences, or even single clauses. This is slightly at odds with the best practice for a forum thread and probably wastes vertical space too.

Let me know if this behavior already exists.

I can confirm through testing that this is possible if you bulk-select messages from the same author then move to topic.
