[Opensim-dev] Region module project for addition to forge

[R. Gunther]

The only good and safe optiuon from the module you have in mind.
- kick the avatar if they deny that permission or don't respond within a 
timeout.

The things that sounds bad:

The automatic attachments and not removeable attachments sound a bit 
tricky and dangerous.
Also change avatar attachment sound bad and dangerous.

At least make it so, that the module always ask permission to attach 
something, and what get attached.
But still a option with lots of holes to abuse.
