#15: Improve UI to handle the simple Request Tracker use case

Motivation
Currently, Poi is a bit intimidating when used in a simple request tracker use case. This shouldn't be too hard to fix, though.
Proposal
A way to select "Simple Mode" for the tracker. This can either be a switch on the container object, [ ] Simple mode - with conditional in the front page and edit form (widgets) to hide all the irrelevant information from newbie users - or a view with special template.
The tracker managers will of course have full access to information.
Another concern is probably when sending notification mails - the same filtering of irrelevant information should apply here for reporters, they are normally not interested in what category things ended up being filed in.
Summarized, the reporters should never be exposed to the full Poi interface, but the managers are.
