Add pronouns to snapshot view of gitlab user profile
Proposal
Following up on the great work of "Adding a "pronouns" box for GitLab Profiles", I was hoping we could add pronouns to the profile snapshot that pops up when you scroll over someone's name in an issue or MR.
I added a workaround to my snapshot a while ago, by adding my pronouns after my title:

However, I think it would be great if people could see their pronouns automatically if they've entered in that info into their profile.
Reasons:
- People are likely to mis-gender someone when responding in an issue or MR. People can scroll over others' names to see info about who they are. Pronouns should be part of this snapshot.
- As a non-engineer using GitLab, I usually scroll over people's names to have a basic understanding of who they are. I only go to their profile on rare occasion. Pronouns should appear by people's names as an introduction -- they might get hidden if they are just on the profile page.
Proposal
We should make pronouns show up in the snapshot view when you scroll over someone's name on an issue or MR.
I'm not a designer, but I think pronouns belong close to the name. Here's my proposed mockup:
