The committer screen now shows if the id does not appear to be
subscribed to the private@ list for any of the committees to which it
belongs.

However the marker only appears if the logged-in user has sufficient
karma, i.e. it's their id or they have root or secretary karma.

A missing marker could either mean the id is subscribed, or the check
has not been done due to lack of karma.

It might be better to always show a marker, i.e. is the subbed status:

- OK
- not subbed
- not known

Alternatively, would be reveal too much private info if the status was
always checked, regardless of user karma?

These considerations also apply to the committee screen.
Obviously actual mail addresses should not be shown if the user does
not have karma, but would it be wrong to show every committer the sub
status for every committee member?
