Ah, I see -- they would need some ways to view and edit the framework
code, but a special build of the IDE wouldn't be the easiest way to
accomplish that.  If it were me, I'd instead put in some sort of
password or magic incantations that simply unlock those extra
abilities, much like game developers do for debugging their games.
