Comment:

 No, users would see the a highly specific reason for why they are flagged,
 which should always (with exceptions) tie into a guideline violation.

 The only relation this has to user notes is that we currently
 automatically add a note that says who flagged a user, that automated user
 note would also include the reason you choose.

 The intent and purpose is to make a user aware of why their account has
 been acted on, in a reliable and direct manner, which has both information
 about what is going on, and what to expect, helping to remove uncertainty
 and improving the user experience all over.

 User notes in general are still tied to the `moderate` capability as it
 always has been, as there's clearly been a misunderstanding, I am re-
 opening the ticket :)
