"Headless" threads do not show in the client sidebar
What is the issue? Right now the behaviors are - Reply to a deleted reply:
- The deleted reply is replaced by "Message not available."
- The reply to the deleted reply is still available in the client sidebar.
Reply to a deleted top-level annotation:
- The deleted top-level annotation is not visible
- The reply to the deleted top-level annotation is not visible in the client sidebar.
We should make these behaviors the same. Particularly for users who have replied to a now-deleted top-level annotation, their comments and thoughts are no longer available to themselves or other users. To solve these issues, we could make the behavior of replies to deleted top-level annotations match the current behavior we use for a reply to a deleted reply.
To Reproduce this behavior
- Create a top-level annotation.
- Create a reply to the top-level annotation
- Create a reply to the reply
- Delete the reply to the top-level annotation. Note that the reply to the reply is still available on the page.
- Delete the top-level annotation. Note that the whole thread disappears.
