🚀 Feature
In order to give a great user experience for #345 (closed) I would expect that a link is generated and included in the post content during editing the post.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Well, you don't get a feedback if you e.g. mistype the slug or if a notification will be send to the mentioned user. Furthermore, the post's content
does not include a link to the user.
Describe the prefered solution and alternatives you've considered
During editing a post a request is made to search for a user with the given slug. If the editing user selects the right user from e.g. a dropdown, the editor automatically embeds a link pointing to the selected user. The backend regex for mentions must be adapted, too.
