[RFC|Accepted] Avatar improvements, Gravatar

[naderman]

Just wanted to make everyone aware that Cullen is working on a more generic solution to this, which you can see at https://github.com/ckwalsh/phpbb3/tree/ ... %2Favatars.

I'd like to note that I have opened a WIP pull request at github: https://github.com/phpbb/phpbb3/pull/1100

User visible changes with the new modular avatar system:
The avatar settings will no longer display as a page full of available avatar settings. Currently you see all settings for all enabled avatars. With the new system you will first choose the avatar you want to use with a drop-down list. Afterwards you are able to change the settings for the selected avatar.

Old settings:

New settings:

Avatar drop-down list:

New avatar drivers that are added to /includes/avatar/driver/ folder and which are added as a service in /config/avatars.yml will automatically be added to the ACP settings page. Of course only enabled drivers will be displayed in the user and group settings.

Hello,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, or if I need to create a new topic. Let me know if I'm wrong
Would it be possible to pre-fill the "Gravatar email" field with the user e-mail address if he select "Gravatar" from the dropdown list ? If he has already setted this field with an other email, this other value is used of course.
I'm playing with 3.1-a2, so maybe you've planned this for a feature relase.
