Research direction

Start by locating the UserFlairV2 definition and the entry point that exposes flair data. Trace how editable flair values are represented, then determine where the user's custom text should be exposed for moderation use. Done means the custom text is available alongside the existing flair fields.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This is a UserFlairV2:

{
  userId: 't2_hjp31',
  subredditId: 't5_g3e97a',
  text: 'Custom',
  cssClass: '',
  templateId: 'a24fe6b2-dc46-11f0-a54e-e2209b7e3739',
  textColor: '',
  backgroundColor: '',
  enabled: true
}

This is editable, so a user can choose to display whatever they want. Unfortunately, what they use is not text. It's not exposed. Exposing what they have written would be a nice addition, especially for moderation purposes!
