@johncschuster FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors

I'm not sold that this is a bug. I'm asking for clarity in #product

[johncschuster]

Ok! After chatting about this in product, it does sound like this might be a bug. That said, I'm not able to reproduce the behavior. When I follow the steps above and return to the chat, I see the green line indicator as expected.

I've asked for a retest

[johncschuster]

It looks like it was checked, but there's no comment here. I've bumped the thread for that.
