1/ email notification when course requested
2/ course request capability so that we can limit who can request new course
3/ list of my pending course requests on the request form
Implemented in 1.9 by Petr Skoda, and reviewed and merged to HEAD by me.
* Note: this would never lead to problems with default role definions.
* Also ended up mostly rewriting delete_category_form to simplify the messages that are displayed.
* New helper function require_all_capabilities, a bit like require_any_capability.
* Rewrite all the forms to use formslib and improve usability.
* Put the place where admins need to go to process approvals in the admin menu.
* Show the request course/pending requests button on the page for the category that requested courses get added to.
converted concatenation to use $a instead for new (committed with the rest of Quiz UI redesign project) strings, created new strings for old strings that did not yet use $a

* Simplify category editing permissions to just moodle/category:manage and moodle/category:seehiddencategories.
* Enforce those correctly. (Note MDL 17502 is still outstanding.)
* Don't screw up category sort order when you just edit name or description.
* Niceties like where redirects go when you cancel or submit forms.
* Make sure a global course creator can see the site admin block.
* Don't allow a category to be made the child of one of its children!
* General code cleanup to bring key files more in line with best pracitice.
Apologies for the fact it is one big patch, rather than a series of smaller patches. However, categoryedit.php, category.php and index.php where in pretty bad shape and needed significant cleaning up. categoryedit.php, in particular, was almost completely rewritten.
Merged from MOODLE_19_STABLE.
made the link in an empty random question more readable, added a link to show category contents after the list of sample questions of a random question
In the 1.9 branch this is controlled by a new option under Admin -> Experimental. In Moodle 2.0 dev it is not optional, it just works.
The main change is letting the manual grading report know which random questions might need manual grading. MDL-4004 - this depends on the random question under consideration, which requires a new questiontype method.
I also changed the random question code so that I could remove some global variables.
* Move the show/hide advanced button a bit down the page.
* Improve save button caption when creating a role.
* Don't show defaults on the basic define roles screen.
* Explain the background shading on the advanced roels screen.
* Fix the problem with the risks link to Moodle docs.
* Help icon by the permissions column heading.
* Tables with rotated <th>s, make them vertical-align: bottom.
* Rename explain.php and explainhascapability.php to check.php and explain.php
* Tool tips on the number headers in the explain table.
* Explain table - role names were missing.
* Allow link_to_popup_window to work with full URLs.
