Description

NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

Problem Definition

User mentioning is possible for any users on the instance, regardless of the page you are mentioning on. This causes a problem if you've mentioned someone but they don't have permissions to see the page, and so they won't see your comments. The user does not get any notifications.

Suggested Solution

Either show a warning that the user does not have permission to view the page
Or only list the users that are able to view. First option is probably better.
