When you’re using the timeline this way, for reference:

 ![full_width_timeline](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/9/d/9d241847b124da45df1228e6fb851e198f5754fd.png)

Currently if you hit Reply on a post (or Shift+R) the reply dialog comes up underneath the full width timeline, and isn’t visible until you click somewhere else on the page to close the timeline. I think it would feel a lot more natural if starting a reply automatically closed the timeline.

Small thing, but yeah!
