Is it possible to include a person's Topic Count (or other info from the user object) on the post/topic page?

Hey again.

I've spent a while messing around with many of the hooks and and templates trying to figure this out. We can already get the post count of a user with relative ease, but much of the information from the user object is missing from the user object that we access via {posts.user} .

I was wondering if we could add fields from the main user object (the ones you'd see at /api/user/Person1) to the other object (more specifically, if it is possible, which hooks I'd need to access and a general method).

@Laz Just fyi, topiccount is now available and it's easier to add data see this issue https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/7620
