[Opensim-dev] Proposal: Enable ossl functions by default

I am strongly in favour of this change but I concur with Melanie about 
limiting access to the higher thread level functions. I would suggest 
that a reasonable approach to *default* values would be:

Severe = ESTATE_OWNER
VeryHigh = ESTATE_OWNER, ESTATE_MANAGER
High - ESTATE_OWNER, ESTATE_MANAGER, PARCEL_OWNER
and the others as per Mister Blue's list

I have suggested in the past that adding  a mechanism to allow setting 
something like "Allow_osThreatLevelSevere = xxx" as a valid ini entry 
which would make it considerably easier for most grid managers to 
implement and more easily accommodate new functions as they're added 
(assuming they're correctly categorized).

I see no reason at all to disable OSSL by default since it doesn't 
*prevent* or interfere with any expected behaviour.

As Fred pointed out, the list Mister Blue supplied would fail because 
functions are cases sensitive.

Also missing from the list :

Allow_osForceOtherSit
also I think there was a bounded terrain manipulation function added 
last summer that isn't in the list and appears also not to be documented 
in the wiki (or if it is, I can't see it)
