Allow question types to be displayed in order that is better than random or alphabetical. Since we don't know all the qtypes there may be:
1. Store the order in the DB (config plugins).
2. Set up a good default order for the standard types. (Unknown types go at the end by default.)
3. Allow admins to edit the order on the qtype admin screen.
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.
1. If a user does not have that capability, don't let them change whether the course is visible.
2. Give teachers that capability by default.
3. To avoid regressions, on upgrade, give moodle/course:visibility to any role that has moodle/course:update.
Bugs: MDL-17479, MDL-16426, MDL-16063, MDL-16013, MDL-15658, MDL-15556, MDL-15161, MDL-14925, MDL-13742, MDL-11557.
* 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.
* New table role_context_levels
* Populate table with defaults on install
* Populate table on upgrade with the same defaults, plus any additional ones needed to ensure all the role assignments already in the database are allowed.
* Change get_assignable_roles to respect these settings.
* UI for these settings on the add/edit role form.
* Save these settings when a role definition is saved.
* If in a context, there are no roles you can assign, display a polite message.
* Back up these settings.
* Restore these settings. When resotring a <=1.9.x backup file, any newly imported roles are set to be assignable at all contextlevels.
Restore not tested because it is broken in HEAD.
