Select and Quote Chat Text into Topics with a Floating Quote Button

Feature
1

I love to use the buttons that appear when selecting a certain text. You can click on Quote, Copy Quote or Ask AI. Unfortunately this is not possible in Discourse Chat right now.

Steps to quote in a topic right now

  1. Select some text and click on the button and you’re done.

Problem

Right now everyone in our team just makes a screenshot from a Chat. They paste the screenshot in a topic. This is a waste of webspace.

Solution

It would be very useful if selecting text inside a Discourse Chat triggered the same quote buttons as in topics. It should have the same buttons: Quote, Copy Quote and Ask AI.

Thanks for considering this feature request.
