Notify users on mentions in document comments #1380

- added1. to developWaiting for a developerWaiting for a developer
on Nov 30, 2021 Other solutions have their own file format but when exporting to a regular office file, the mention is purely identified by the users email address. For the Nextcloud context we'd ideally have the user id or federated cloud id present as some kind of metadata, in order to uniquely identify the mentioned user. We are currently discussion with Collabora how we could store mentions in the comments in the actual file.
Findings so far, ODF does not seem to have any good fit for storing a unique user identifier (like the user id or federated cloud id) within the document, so while we could probably process mentions while being edited in COOL there is no good way we found until now to persist those properly. @kendy is still looking into options from the Collabora side.

Cool.
One thing to note is that with the current implementation this would only work in the document text (not in the comments). I recall that due to document format reasons getting it to work on comments is a lot more challenging.
Reacted by Julius KnorrReopening for the remaining task:
- Listen to the post message for inserted mention and emit a notifcation to the user

@pedropintosilva we picked this for our next version and this would need some discussion in the next call.

on Sep 20, 2024 @elzody do you need any input from design on this?
@Rash419 @pedropintosilva as far as I understood there is ongoing work on your side on mentioning in comments now, does it make sense to gather a bit of design/ux feedback from our designers in next weeks call?
