Hide users from other users

Description

I am trying to open up access of my phabricator site to my clients. With project level restriction, and spaces restriction.

However due to the nature of a large number of my clients in a particular industry i am serving, they are no stranger to scraping each other companies email addresses, names, company structure and poaching one another. To other shady things.

As such i have taken steps to prevent them from such users "discovering" other users. Such as hiding the subscriber, and assigned to field.

However as https://secure.phabricator.com/book/phabricator/article/forms/ pointed out. This is not an actual solution, it simply makes it less "obvious". As anyone can go to the comments segment, and start searching using the @mention option.

I do notice that this is actually in place on this site (perhaps not intentionally). As such this may simply be an existing, but not easily found configuration. Or a side effect of using alternative identity providers.

@avivey (this is me testing it again) : Or perhaps the search is just taking .... forever .... XD
