[rt-users] Allow only a specific user to see a Callback

[Potla, Ashish Bassaliel]

I think you can also get the current user`s obj and get his name like : $session{'CurrentUser'}->UserObj->Name and put in a condition to see if its John or not. Based on this condition you should call the callback.

But going into the future if you want to add more users this functionality, it makes sense to create a new group. 
Then you should put in a condition to see iif the current user is a part of this new group.

I'm no RT API expert, but I think from a best practices standpoint you
really ought to create a new group for the purpose, make 'John' a member of
that group, and then have the scrip allow the callback based on membership
in that group.
