Gatekeeper mod #219

Closed alexiskennedy closed 1 year ago

alexiskennedy commented 1 year ago

(1) new WF-sanctioned mod, GHIRBI, which does only two things: (i) allow mods which rely on DLLs to be enabled and (ii) provide text explaining this. (2) Mods which rely on DLLs cannot be enabled unless GHIRBI is installed and enabled.

-- I think, for now, we should hold off on confirmation warnings as well as this. The burden of clicking OK when enabling/disabling several mods sounds high. GHIRBI is effectively an indication that mods should run with elevated privileges. Any sysadmin would tell us this is a risky idea, but it's less risky than we have right now.

Chelnoque suggested conf warnings as well as gatekeeper mod does sound safer: I agree.
