The web software we use has several deficiencies, and you've
noted one of them. What helps is the 'Show New Messages/Show
All Messages' toggle in the upper right.
If you Show New, select the message you want, and then Show
All, you'll see all the context.

We recently upgraded the software, and the patch for some reason
didn't [re]create that procedure. It's been done manually; thanks
for pointing it out.

Not currently, but that sounds like a good idea. We'll see
if it's possible to add.

Taken care of for you.
