[Opensim-users] Save IAR function

Just my thoughts on this in addition to below... Why not just have the 
save iar command exclude items in your inventory from the archive if the 
item does not belong to you AND it is not full permissions? Seems like 
it would be easier to implement, would avoid having to run a grid mode 
server to make inventory backups (if I understood your post correctly), 
and would achieve the same thing? :)
