Allow ticking of mod hat from quick reply

Title:
Allow ticking of mod hat from quick reply

Area:
Replies

Summary:
Currently the "comment as admin" feature can only be activated from "more options". This is inconvenient!

Description:
I went to reply to a post in a community I maintain so I could try out the new "comment as admin" feature, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Just as I was about to give up, I clicked the "more options" button on a whim and there it was. As someone who almost never uses "more options", I would never have expected to find it there.

It would definitely be a lot more convenient to have the option available when quick-replying, too. As an example, I see a lot of blank space to the right of the Post Comment/Preview/More Options boxes; maybe it could go there, next to "check spelling"?

I wouldn't want to clutter up the quick reply with more options. If this is implemented, it should at least make sure it only shows up in a community where you're an admin.
