> We want to add some administration features to Shindig. This patch
> adds/changes 3 things in Shindig.
> 1. Remove the existing blacklist functionality in Shindig which currently is
> enabled by pointing Shindig to a text file with a list of gadgets to
> blacklist. The new functionality uses a whitelist instead of a blacklist and
> is indexed on a per container basis. Meaning an admin could whitelist some
> gadgets in one container but not another. This functionality is enabled
> through a Guice module allowing implementors to use something else besides a
> text file.
> 2. Add the ability for administrators to specify which features are allowed
> and denied for a specific gadget in a specific container. This information
> is checked in two places, when the metadata request is made and when the
> gadget is rendered.
> 3. Add the ability for containers to secure RPC requests made by gadgets.
> The RPC code now has the ability to arbitrate all RPC calls made. Containers
> can specify their own arbitrator. The common container has its own default
> arbitrator available.
