We used a very old community platform before insided, but one of the advantages it has was to show a mouse-over tooltip of the users email address when you were logged in as an administrator.

@andre.gerard Curious if this is an idea you’d be interested in based on our conversation from earlier today? Just a thought!

Just dropping some thoughts with my security hat on. Making this available on the front-end could be a security or privacy risk if the page source happens to expose everyone’s email addresses and just hides it with CSS or similar.

It’s a cool feature though, as long as it doesn’t leak too much. :)

Should probably only be added for moderators.
