> When a user flags a post it would be handy as a mod to have a reply option to the flagger that would reference the flag so they know what I am talking about. As an example I sent this message out this am. It would be handy to have been able to generate a response to the flag straight from the flag notification page.

It’s already in place. If a user flag a post as “Something Else”, you can reply to him in the flag admin panel.
