Move the 'Edited' marker

I really think that when someone edits their message, the 'Edited' marker should appear up, beside the name and the message date. That way, everything would be at one place and the marker wouldn't annoyingly pop up at the end of the message. Sometimes, the marker shows up at the end of the line and sometimes, depending on the message length, it can show the marker solely on the new line and it just isn't looking really nice altogether.

Sometimes the marker can blend in with the text, especially if the message is long because of it's color which is nearly as gray as the dark background in dark theme and is almost blending in.

I really think that this little detail should be changed for much cleaner chatting experience.

the (edited) is really hard to miss. if you'd like to edit a joke to be funnier or fix a typo to not seem sloppy, the (edited) is added to make sure you can't pull it off. i still think this would still be the case with your suggestion, and because of that I think it ought to be a little asterisk next to the timestamp. unintrusive, but still there when you need it
