Comment (by dd32):

 What about instead of options, it's just privacy-first by default and only
 exposes "similar level" data?

  - All users just see `2 other person are viewing this topic`
  - Moderators get `John (ACME Support Rep), and Jane (Moderator) are
 viewing this topic`
  - Plugin Authors with multiple reps get `John (ACME Support Rep) and 1
 other are viewing this topic`

 No options, no configuration, just moderators get to see usernames, and
 plugin reps get to see other plugin reps for their plugin.

 It's still not anonymous for moderators, but should remove the privacy
 concerns while not having to add more options.
