"email your grader" button #115

It would be nice for students to have a button to directly email their grader(s) for a submission.

I've been very careful that students can't find out each others' email addresses through the site. I've been treating it as protected information...

Doesn't the G-Apps email directory kind of defeat the point of not showing their emails in bottlenose?

This would just make it easier for students to know that they are emailing the correct person (if there are people with the same name in the email directory) when they go to send an email (and make it more convenient).

Also, we currently show staff emails on the course website anyway.

We are still trying to architect Bottlenose so it doesn't presume a NEU-specific configuration (we're not quite there yet, but that's the aspiration!), so assuming a G-Apps directory is beside the point.

That said, emailing graders and emailing team partners might not be a bad idea. I'd implement UI for it as a @ Name link in the inline comment widgets, probably...
