Spring Social for Twitter adds RT @username to retweets?

Hi,
I noticed that, when I perform a search by a hashtag, the results are a little bit strange. What happens is that retweets have the text altered with a prefix: `RT @username`.
First, I'm not sure who does that - the twitter API or Spring Social.
Second - the problem with that is that the link will get pushed out of the text. Most tweets have the link at the very end, and if that doesn't fit any more, it will be truncated and lost.
I do see that the text of the original tweet is still available in the retweetedStatus field, but this still doesn't look right.
Any idea on what happens here?
Thanks.
Eugen.
