Customizing the timestamp

We’re using the renderChatItem prop in the component, and we want to include timestamps between messages (but only if a certain amount of time passed between messages).

Could you pass previousMessage to renderChatItem so that the callback has access to the previous
message (and, therefore, the previous message’s sender / timestamp)?
