Does context in AP have to be a collection, or can be be like a Flag activity? Say I wanted to Create(Note) about a Flag I'd received, I'd need:

1) A way to address the remote moderation team (moderation group actor)

2) A way to say "this note is about this Flag activity", using inReplyTo would feel weird here, but maybe context would work?

@scott nope, context can be anything; it doesn't have to be a collection. it's only a thread *if* it has whatever properties you consider necessary for a thread (e.g. an owner, items, and some signal that you can participate)

for the example of Create Note regarding a Flag, i'd use inReplyTo because you are responding to the report, no?

I wanted to avoid inReplyTo since subsequent replies wouldn't share the same parent, i.e., Flag -> Note 1 -> Note 2

Note 2 would be inReplyTo Note 1, but both would be in the context of Flag

I do also want to introduce correct addressing on Flags as currently they don't carry to/cc/bto/bcc, they're just sent to the reported accounts inbox, and Mastodon passes them all through to the moderators, without the reported account seeing those activities, despite them being implicitly addressed to the reported account (by means of delivery to their inbox)
