Comment:

 Ah, thanks for the reply @scottdeluzio! As always the more minds the
 better.

 And yes I do hear clear & loud that not everyone tends to look at the
 Dashboard (I'm including myself there as well haha).

 > I think your comment about Requests targeting a very specific audience
 can be satisfied by only showing the bubble to just the users who can act
 on those Requests rather than any user who can see the menu.

 This actually made me re-think my reply and yes showing the menus (and the
 bubbles along with them) will be definitely an option too and this also
 gives a nice plus as we're currently looking at #44176 that adjusts the
 capabilities so "privacy roles" can also be created with more granular
 control. So, that might as well take care of both concerns.

 I'll mark this for 5.4 in case we can push both tickets together, so we
 can re-check the patch here and think of what options we have to avoid the
 menu breaking in 2 lines due to the longer text.

 Export PII and Erase PII, don't look bad to me at all but I'm not sure how
 often we're able to change strings in this way, as well as if PII would be
 understandable to all Admins. We do know what PII stands for, but not the
 majority of the userbase :).
