Description

It is common for a user to want to acknowledge a message they receive a notification about. At present, this requires clicking on the notification to get to the message, which takes some time.

It would be convenient to be able to reply to react to a message directly from the notification. The highest priority is to be able to give a thumbs up, though we can consider other reactions as well if it's technically feasible without too much additional effort.
