Users name not always visible when approving posts

Trivial UX issue:

When viewing the approval queue, we often have to rename topics to make them more descriptive.

Once you click the button to edit the title, the name of the posting user is no longer displayed. This often requires me to flick back to the previous screen to re-check the name or it’s spelling (since we include user names in our titles).

Displaying the poster’s name to the edit page would be handy.

Have we looked at this @eviltrout?

Thanks for the suggestion. In this commit, we show the username and avatar of the user who created the queued post:
