 The "right to data portability" in GDPR also applies to site visitors that
 submit comments. The personal data they provide is their name, email
 address and (optionally) site URL.

 For sites to be able to comply with the GDPR we will have to add tools (UI
 and a method) to both show that data and export it as JSON.

 As the only private data is the user email address, thinking that we don't
 need a confirmation and can simply email the data and the export file to
 the user at their email.
