message deletion per device and on all devices, multi selection as well

[je-vv]

Currently on Dino I can't select multiple messages, to do whatever with them, particularly delete them.

This when perhaps one wants to keep just a subset of all messages received or sent, both on a particular device or all devices.

So I'm missing a multiple selection to do an action, whether delete, or perhaps share the messages, or copy their text...

And deletion of such selection, or just a messages, whether on the particular device, or all devices as another delete option is important. This way one can keep local clean chats, with just what's important to oneself, and be safer, in case of stolen/hacked devices.

Not sure if this wouldn't be allowed by XMPP, but perhaps as a client there's something that can be done. The delete for all devices should replicate to all other devices, while the local device delete doesn't.

Another missing delete option is deleting not just for oneself, which should not be visible to others, but also delete to everyone, which replicates to all devices for oneself, but also to other in the chat.

Using chat, perhaps mistakenly, for both, personal chats and group ones.

Thanks !
