My fellow nerds,

How about treating this like a security bug, since essentially it is? The
workflow I tend to see for that sort of starts with going to a closed group
initially, a fix being worked out RIGHT MEOW, and ends its journey with a
report of what the problem was l8trz. In the case of harassment, I don't think
it will ever be appropriate to know the name of the person that felt harassed,
but it would almost certainly be good for everyone to eventually know precisely
what happened so it's not repeated in future.
For many reasons, I like the anonymous feedback mechanism that is built in
currently.
Cheers,
Brooke
