Add back the Call Moderator button, but for Groups!

There was a point in time in VRChat's early days when there used to be a "Call Moderator" button to get assistance regarding pesky users. That feature was removed mid-2018.
With the implementation of Groups instances, and group moderators being appointed, this leads to a new era of VRChat safety.
If a user in a group has access to moderate an instance, allow them to opt in via a self-selectable group permission that allows them to be notified if a user needs help in an instance they are currently not surveying. The moderator can then immediately travel to the instance where that a group member needs assistance.
The end-user can receive a notification that a moderator has been called, and then wait for help to arrive.
This might be a nightmare if anybody in a group instance could call a moderator. Which is why the "call moderator" button should be for group members only, as long as they are a group rank that has a permission enabled to call for help. Also have moderation calls be logged in the group logs, to prevent abuse of spamming. I would suggest one user at a time to be allowed to call for a moderator once every fifteen minutes, the exact length of an invite notification request. If several users try to use the button, they will receive a message that says "a moderator has already been called for this instance".

I am actually happy that you have thoght this out like this as it sounds like it is something that is really needed. Only trusted members of the group can use this call for help button. You know the people that would usually be known for spotting those naughty people, great Idea DAG! I support all the way!
