I'm reopening this for now because I'm a bit concerned both about the change
and the implementation.
Sadly I think this is pretty high risk right now. We don't currently have any
other way to delete moodbar comments, the hide function is the ONLY way, after
that the next escalation is to manually edit the database. This leads us to
some major issues and the hidden feedback includes things that would normall be
oversighted such as libel or personal information. This is problematic for even
sysops to have access to but, I believe, has been a compromise until a full OS
option is available. In my opinion it seems absolutely unacceptable to have
autoconfirmed users able to view and undelete at the very least without legal
approval and a much comprehensive community consensus (with them having a full
understanding of what they are giving away).
I'm also hesitant about the implementation. This shouldn't be in moodbar.php,
it's a local change that even if implemented should be in commonsettings, not
in the defaults.
Copying in Philippe because I know he's worked with the moodbar team before on
some of the privacy and OS issues and will have a better understanding of
legals needs.
