tweet_mode=extended for statuses_lookup

See original GitHub issue

I used statuses_lookup to get specific tweets. But with a recent change of Twitter to have also extended tweets does the REST API only return a compacted version for these tweets.

The Twitter API now supports a parameter tweet_mode=extended to return not only the compacted version but also the extended one.

#785 does reference that it is currently not possible to use this parameter with statuses_lookup

What needs to be changed to add tweet_mode=extended support to statuses_lookup?
