Allow users to disable some notification options

[stevejburge]

We should add a UI for this

Customer:

We have a client that uses your plugin heavily. They've run into an issue with the Notifications meta box where users are selecting "Roles:" when they should be selecting individual recipients. That's a problem for their particular user/role structure, as it results in mass notifications going out to people who don't need them.

The editorial staff has communicated to the writers that they should no longer select a "Role", but to cut down on user error, I'd like to know if it would be possible to add a feature where we could hide the "Role" block in the autocomplete/dropdown. Or is there a filter or some way to do that already?

Anderson:

We have implemented 2 new filters in order to allow limiting the list of roles of users on the Notification meta box.

/**
 * Filters the list of users available for notification.
 *
 * @param array $users
 * @param int   $post_id
 */
publishpress_notification_users_meta_box

/**
 * Filters the list of roles available for notification.
 *
 * @param array $roles
 * @param int   $post_id
 */
publishpress_notification_roles_meta_box

One more request for this:

I never want Notifications sent by accident to Roles. I want to remove Roles from the Notify options. I do not have Roles checked in the custom notifications but the option pops up. How do I prevent Roles from being selected by mistake and sending a 1,000 emails?

We should have a blacklist where you could disable some options inside the "Notify" metabox
