## Awkward workaround is acceptable until this feature is implemented

You are correct, there is not yet a better way to contact a moderator than the awkward workaround you mentioned (flagging an unrelated post). To be clear:

1. A better method to get a moderator's attention should exist, so this will be considered a feature request (feel free to add that tag to the question).
1. In the meantime, although that workaround is awkward, you should feel free to use it. Flagging an unrelated post will not in itself be considered misuse.

I'm not a moderator myself - any moderators who disagree please object. I'll take the lack of objections on this answer as more meaningful than any upvotes.
