Bug Description

In essence, what I'm requesting is an option allowing the user to switch between these three scenarios:
i. Clicking the throbber does nothing [current behaviour, should probably also be default so as to avoid confusion]
ii. Clicking the throbber submits the dent (as suggested by @nybill, this could also disable press-enter-to-submit, which would help with small and/or netbook keyboards, where enter is often next to right shift)
iii. Clicking the throbber refreshes the current notebook page (especially useful as currently the "extra" pages - context, user, group, for example - do not appear to automatically do so).

i and ii are easy to achieve with a simple set of user option. (I'd like to put a "don't download avatars" option in there.)

iii though is a different matter.
The context, user, and, group pages don't update after then have been set. user and group *could* get this ability. The context page however, moves backwards in time based on the first selected dent. So that when a users clicks "context" on a dent (Dent A), heybuddy will display Dent A then "Dent B" that Dent A is in response to. If Dent B is in response to a Dent, the process is continued until there are no more references to past dents. The identi.ca API does not reference possible "future" dents.

Good point, in retrospect context was a bad choice of example. Just assume it was never in the request.
