My hope is that the next step for WhatsApp is to add editing of arbitrary received messages in the client app. While the protocol provides plausible deniability of messages in the cryptographic sense, it's hard for someone who sent an incrimination message to argue that their layperson recipient someone modified the message when the app doesn't allow this to happen easily
