Kristina, we won't put it in stable anyway, and the next release is a
few months away now, so we have some time to decide on this.  Personally
I'd rather leave it out in the meantime on a separate feature branch
where we can pull it in if we need it before 1.4.  Maybe someone will
want us to do peer assessment and provide funding to do it properly!
(Probably unlikely).

Ruslan, if we did decide to go ahead with this rule I think one patch
(25850d45) should be rewritten a bit.  On My views and on the view page,
as written it's going to run through all the user's course groups and
count the tutors in each one with a separate query for each group.
It'll be bad for users with a lot of groups (maybe not on your
development machine, but when the db is over the network).  It's also
usually not really worth it, because 99% of the time you visit my views,
or visit a view, it's not to submit the view.  If there's no easy way
around this, it might be better if we remove view submission from those
pages altogether - submission can still happen from the group's page or
perhaps from some new page.

Bug description:
Not sure if it is a bug. User is able to submit a view for assessment to the group where s/he is the admin or tutor (i.e. submit a view for assessment to oneself). I suggest to fix it either by disabling such possibility completely, or allowing it only if there are other tutors or admins in the group (in which case user will not be able to assess own view despite the role). Fix is ready, just need a confirmation from community.
