   Log Message:   
   Support multiple loadable modules per module type, restricted via ARS   
      
   Implemented this idea discussed between Nightfox and myself:   
      
    RS> A configurable ARS for some loadable would be a good idea and allow a   
    RS> sysop to use built-in functions for some users and loadable modules for   
    RS> others.   
      
   One thing I've thought would be handy would be to have a user preference option   
   for that as well.  For instance, if a sysop has msglist or DDMsgReader set up   
   for the loadable module to list/read messages, it may be useful to have a   
   toggle option in the user preferences so users can specify whether they want to   
   use that or the stock Synchronet reader/lister.   
      
   ----   
      
   So with user properties exposed to ARS and loadable modules restricted via   
   ARS, it's now possible for a "toggle option" in (some yet to be written) user   
   preferences mod to toggle between (or at least "opt-out" from) loadable modules   
   (and possibly revert built-in functionality, when it's there).   
      
   Some of the "built-ins" (e.g. the batch transfer menu and file transfer menu)   
   are likely to get removed soon, so reverting to "built-in" doesn't make sense   
   in that case but you could at least limit what users (or user terminals) have   
   access to what loadable modules now. e.g. I plan to make the default/stock   
   configuration use msglist.js only for "ANSI AND COLS 80" users.   
      
   This includes recursion protection (refuses to execute recursively and logs   
   an error if attempted) for all loadable modules.   
      
   The SCFG configuration for Loadable Modules could use a little more love now   
   (help screens and such).
