In Restore the Send a message link in users' profiles in the Your suggestions to make Amara great board I explained why it is so important for collaborative subtitling to be able to message fellow subtitlers, even if they don't belong to a team.

However, the URLs of Send a message links for all participants listed in any team member list seem to have the following form:

http://www.amara.org/en/messages/new/?user=username

I.e. there is nothing team-specific about these URLs.

So, until Amara developers hopefully restore the Send a message link in all users' profiles:

Would it be possible to use that URL model, replacing "username" by the real user name?
Would the numeric version of the the username linked to on the subs made by a user - e.g. in my case: 10595 - also work? o
Or should we fish the alphabetic username - e.g. calmansi for me - from one of the activities listed in the profile?
