Configurable Retweet syntax in Tweetie for Mac

Would really like to see the configurable retweeting syntax options from Tweetie for iPhone show up in Tweetie for Mac as well, even if only as a hidden preference for those who particularly care.

IMHO, the problem with the current "via..." approach is that it's more confusing since it makes the re-posted tweet sound like it's coming from the originator. The RT syntax has the advantage of making it clear at the beginning that these are somebody else's words.

For example, I had a straight male friend recently re-tweet a post from a girl about a cute guy. It seemed really weird for a moment until my brain processed the "via" line and realized that it was a re-post. :)
