Suggestions on Adding the Retweet Count and the Favorite Count of a Tweet.

[Mehrdad Momeny]

Hi Ahmed,
I think, having only the number of retweets(without favorites), couldn't be
useful enough.

But about showing it in UI, Maybe showing it inside ReTweet button (only
the number, besides retweet icon) could be easier and non-destructive in
terms of keeping current GUI.

Another idea is adding a new line to PostWidget signature, and showing this
on that line (I suggest putting new line above current info) and making it
optional, which user can enable/disable "Show number of retweets/favorites"
in Preferences/Appearance.

Here you can find two mockups I created based on second idea:
