Note that handling of incoming messages isn't configured yet, so for now
replies to Discourse messages are discarded instead of being posted
online (either as a new topic or as a follow-up to an existing one).
AskBot isn't able to do that either so this is not a regression.  (See
rdm#2952 msg12 and rdm#3246).  Should we decide to adopt Discourse I see
no issue in enabling that workflow, we have something similar for
Redmine already.
