Permissions:

• 'petition.pe' required to open, comment and view a petition

• 'petition.warp-to-own-if-assigned' required IF 'warp-requires-permission' is enabled

Known problems: Certain situations can lead to double notifications, such as an operator commenting on his own petition. Colourisation is work-in-progress.
