Status in Mahara ePortfolio: Fix Committed

Bug description:
Admins who receive an objectionable content notification might not be on the 
access list for the view that's reported, so they get an 'access denied' 
message.

They could look at the view by logging in as the view owner, but they have no 
way to find out who the owner is when all they have is the view id.

A quick fix might be to change the objectionable content notification so it 
doesn't link to the view itself, but to a page in the admin section with 
information about the view owner and instructions to log in as the user to see 
the view.

A better option might be to create a secret url token for the view (you can 
make these invisible to the view owner) and use the secret url in the link from 
the new admin screen (or directly from the notification).
