Should gossip also be fetching metadata for npub mentions within the text of notes? As far as I can tell it currently doesn't - if the npub metadata has already been fetched gossip renders a NIP-05 name but if it has not, it renders a truncated npub as a link. i guess you'd want to limit how many of these you did so if someone posted a note with a thousand npubs it wouldn't DDOS you, but in the case where there is just a few mentions i think it would be a good addition.
