I’ve put this on https://github.com/bugzilla/bugzilla-ux/wiki/Bugzilla-7-Roadmap

Nowadays hover cards can be seen on many places, including Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn, Slack.

It can also have:

* their local time
* online indicator (see https://github.com/bzdeck/bzdeck/issues/418 for reference)
* contextual menu items like “Assign to this bug” or “Ask info on this bug”

Implementation note: It’s probably a non-modal dialog, so,

* A user name link should have `aria-haspopup=“dialog”`
* A card should have `role=“dialog”` (https://w3c.github.io/aria/#dialog)

I have used the `menu` role for Bug 1472954, but the `dialog` role is appropriate for this kind of rich widgets.

On mobile, the user hovercard may look like this: https://twitter.com/Twitter/status/1095784011845324801

Since Sylvestre asked Bug 1480482 (as well as bug and user hovercards, IIRC) I’m putting this in my todo list :)

Please keep the "title" attribute on internal bug links, though - it's a handy way of showing the title in the context menu of Firefox on Android, too.
