In it’s present form it is only a very simple plugin.

It replaces the Guardian class can\_send\_private\_message method with one that has a modified conditional testing for `target.staff?`

Feel free to fork or make a PR if you would like.  
PRs are more than welcome.

- But - as Sam has said it would be acceptable to make this a Site Setting PR to Core, that is where I’ll be focusing my efforts at developing this further rather than to make it into a more complex plugin..
