I think the rules are different in a managed environment. It's not the user's 
computer, it's (effectively) the admin's, so it's the admin who should have 
control.

The user needs to have *some* control, such as the ability to disable certain 
notifications and to customize their display to their taste, but when there is 
an admin, the admin should have the power to set whatever limits they see fit, 
including an exclusive list of applications allowed to post Growl 
notifications. Allowing the user to override such a list undermines that power.

So, I think Growl should simply obey the whitelist, at least when it is 
enforced, and display (one way or another) that there is one.
