[Status: Backburner ⏳] Auto assign requester when making task via request form

You know, in many cases, A requests tasks B and also follows up & work together on the task, not just forget about it.
So, a feature to automatically assign A (request) to the task A requested will be really helpful.

Please make this a feature! It's causing a lot of issues for our team because it's a deterrent to using request forms.

I really can't believe this isn't a built in feature and that it's been on the "backburner" for 6 years.

A few more thoughts about this request:

1. I would want to have the choice between adding the requester as an Assignee OR as a Follower of the task. That way, there is no confusion as to who is accountable for the action item. 

2. I would want the ability to have the Form be an External Form that auto-assigns Internal Users of Wrike and leaves External Users of Wrike assignment blank.

3. I would want a link to the task in the confirmation email, so that the task is automatically shared with Internal Users of Wrike. And, so they can also find the Task from their email (similar to how an Internal Form has a link to the Request after submission).
