@Taifun: If I recall correctly, Jeff looked into this and the conclusion was that we wouldn't be able to fix it due to Twitter making integration more complicated. Given the size of the team, I think that we are going to table fixing the Twitter component for the time being.
@Evan Worth: Depending on what you're trying to do, it might make sense to start a sharing intent with the Twitter app using the ActivityStarter.
