MJ 29 June 2012: Our understanding of this feature does not make any sense in the current chat concept. Please elaborate the concept further and add examples and use cases. We see the chat as a "talk" metaphor and to us this sounds like people should be able to "unsay" things. A more verbose explanation may greatly help us understand. For instance in forums the editing of postings is covered by other didactic concepts.

JF 9 Jul 2012: We agree with MJ comments. Does any existing chat system allow this?
