[User-committee] FW: [openstack] - [New Idea] - Automatically track non-engineering ATCs

UserVoice can easily be installed as a widget into OpenStack-Dashboard:
this would allow us to gather feedback directly from a point of interaction
for all the users. (Obviously opt-in, but could be folded into the opt-in
stats tracking).

Ask is integrated into LP for login - that's exactly opposite of what I'm
trying to accomplish (make it easy for non-developers to participate).
Let's assume that for every developer, there are (eventually) 100
operators, and for every operator there are at least 100 consumers (cloud
end-users). Optimizing a low-friction process for those consumers to
provide feedback is what I'm aiming for.
