Unified reporting feature

There are many scenarios in which we'd like to have a semi-automated way to scold or punish people. Typically this would be DJs using Trackman incorrectly (bad metadata is a cardinal sin), but I imagine it may be necessary to expand to traffic staff as well.

I'd like a form that authenticated users (via LDAP groups) can fill out with a playlist ID and a drop-down list of common complaints, with support for a comments field.

This could have a number of different outcomes depending on whether this is a repeat offense, including:

• Email-based complaints to the individual or their staff head.
• Twilio integration to call the requests line or text DJs informing them of their mistakes
• For severe cases, trigger broadcast intrusion using our DASDEC. This has the advantage that there's nothing the DJ can do to override it.

This was partially inspired by WUPHF.

I think this is a required feature given the state of automation and track entry currently. These are unacceptable now that they're curating our track database. @benjaques will need to give input if we are going to have anything more than a slap on the wrist. I think bad track entry, for traffic staff or DJs should have an eventual punishment of losing air. When we integrate schedule this could automatically track absences as well.

As for the DASDEC feature, what would that look like?

We have root ssh on the DASDEC, just need to find a way to trigger the relays. Then we could play automation on that using OpenOB.

The linked YouTube video no longer works. Does anyone have a mirror?

I'm inclined to say this is no longer a necessity.
