Completely agree. I wasn't suggesting a full wiki page with step by step
instructions on how to enable, but an emergency back door. ;)

Very understandable.

I agree there is a lot of functionality, but I do believe that even in
the first "round" you should be able to shut off federation totally if
needed. I'm guessing that the hole mentioned is indeed a bug... As an
enterprise we don't want users to be able to setup federated IM as a
rule. Even if there is a all or nothing option in Sipx, that would be
fine. In Kraken you can set it per user or with manual registrations, so
hopefully this is something that can be switched off if wanted before
4.2 is released. Even if it was a manual hand change to an file I would
be happy. Otherwise I won't be able to implement here...
