Yeah I am going to close my PR here and call this a feature.

Particularly there is a gap here:

- @Moin would like … old notification updated
- @lindsey would like … new notifications for new information edited into post

Full alignment here requires pretty complex tracking… I am assessing the size of the change, but to be honest just doing nothing for now is probably easiest, cause the change will end up being very fragile.

Extracting which mentions are new and which are old is something that is going to require either a parser (we don’t parse at that point) or fragile regex.

Moving this to feature @Moin and closing my PR for now
