What does this do?
This searches for mentionable users via the api endpoint rather than using the user list cached on the front end.
Why are we making this change?
New endpoint for mentions search
An endpoint has been created specifically for searching for mentionable users in a channel. Use it to be consistent with zero-web and other projects.
How do I test this?
In a channel, try to @ mention someone. Ensure the suggestion box contains users you would expect to see.
