Use "escaped" mentions without notification to create user directories

Our community should be able to create directories about which people could be contacted for what reason.

The implementation should be as user-friendly as possible so that non-technical people can easily add or change information.

I’m hoping to make use of the benefits of the mentions-UI, like (a) opening the search box after typing @ and (b) linking to the user card from this entry, but without sending a notification to every listed user.

Currently I use [User Name](/u/login) without any of the above features.

I was thinking about something like

  • [user-directory] … a lot of mentions in Tables … [/user-directory]
  • [user]login[/user]
  • some kind of escaped @@login

How could this be realized?
