The idea

Originally posted this as AkkomaGang/akkoma-fe#441 but it's a backend request so moving here.
I want to be able to quote boost my own private (followers-only scope) posts, with the new quote inheriting the scope of the quoted post the same way a reply does.

The reasoning

All the reasons you would want to quote any other post. I want to be able to spin off a new thread on an older followers only post. I browse with replies hidden in the timeline and sometimes people quote boost their older posts with a new update instead of just posting a reply to an old thread. Even though this shows as a reply to the original post, it does show up in timelines in a different way and can kickstart a new line of conversation in a way that a reply might not.

This feature is related to the Akkoma backend specifically, and not pleroma-fe.
