The Summon Command

This is a design sketch for the "summon command", which is a way of notifying a Wikidot user directly of an important page or comment.
The syntax is: [[user username!]]. Using this syntax in any comment or page causes a notification to go the user, with this email subject: "[sitename] %%created_by%% wants your attention".
Use cases:
- Ask someone to join a thread or chat
- Let someone know you're talking about them
The summon takes effect when a page is created, but not when it is edited.
We discourage direct comments on this thread: to discuss it, please start a sub-thread.
