Steps to reproduce
Disable the Rich-Text-Editor in the settings.
Go to a chat room and mention another user by beginning to type "@" and their username.
Select the user to mention from the appearing dropdown.
The message composer will now contain a mention pill and you can compose the rest of your message. Hit send.
Outcome
What did you expect?
The mention pill to be visible and interactive in the timeline after sending the message, regardless of which style of message composer I use
What happened instead?
Your message in the timeline will show up as plain text, and is not interactive as a mention pill usually is.
Additional information
With the Rich-Text-Editor enabled, the same procedure will result in a working interactive mention pill in the timeline.
