In web interface and retweet/repeat API we show the original untrimmed text, but some back-compat API messages will still show the trimmed 'RT' version.
This matches Twitter's behavior on overlong retweets, though we're outputting the RT version in more API results than they do.
Sorting on notice.id when our primary selector was notice_inbox.user_id caused a filesort and table scan of the notice table.
Switchng to notice_inbox's notice_id means we can use our index, and everything comes right up.
Before:
mysql> explain SELECT notice.id AS id FROM notice JOIN notice_inbox ON notice.id = notice_inbox.notice_id WHERE notice_inbox.user_id = 18574 AND notice.repeat_of IS NULL ORDER BY notice.id DESC LIMIT 61 OFFSET 0;
+----+-------------+--------------+--------+------------------------------------+---------+---------+-------------------------------+--------+----------------------------------------------+
| id | select_type | table | type | possible_keys | key | key_len | ref | rows | Extra |

After:
mysql> explain SELECT notice.id AS id FROM notice JOIN notice_inbox ON notice.id = notice_inbox.notice_id WHERE notice_inbox.user_id = 18574 AND notice.repeat_of IS NULL ORDER BY notice_id DESC LIMIT 61 OFFSET 0;
