Description
I've noticed that Twitter posting only occurs when posts are made through the web interface and not through a blogging app such as Ecto, etc. Is this something that can be done?

That can easily be done via the twitter_actions.module that ships with the 2.0 version of the module.
Here is how to do it. First make sure actions and triggers are installed as well as the twitter_actions.module. Then go to the actions page: "admin/settings/actions". From the list at the bottom titled "Make a new advanced action available" select the item titled "Post a message to Twitter". On the config page, enter your twitter username and password and the message you want to tweet using the variables. After you save that go to the triggers page "admin/build/trigger/node" and choose your twitter action from the list under "Trigger: After saving a new post". Now for every post you make, a new tweet should go out.

Looks like the write-up negates the need for a new feature. Thanks!
