Ask HN: The Twitter "stop retweets" button has gone?

Or is it just me? As indicated here http://blogs.bluegumtree.co.uk/vista/2010/03/06/127 there used to be a nice button that stopped retweets from specific people you follow, but it isn't there today.

It's very useful so I can't understand why they have stealth removed it I can't see any update information about it or anyone mentioning it apart from one post on Stackoverflow.

Does anyone know where or why it's gone?

Huh the icon is still there for me, but it is no longer clickable. That's really strange...

I can't even see the Icon http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/4002/nobuttons.jpg

I'm looking in my timeline, not at the user's page. On the user's own page I don't see it either.
