After discussion on enwiki, we have concluded that we do not find the ability
for indiscriminate users to save books to the wiki to be constructive. We wish
to disable on-wiki saving for at least the majority of users.
The nicest and most flexible way to develop the extension is to create new
permissions, say 'savebooktouserspace' and 'savebooktoprojectspace', that can
be assigned to arbitrary groups as with other permissions. This should replace
the hardcoded restriction to */autoconfirmed, respectively. Naturally, the
"save book" box on [[Special:Book]] should not appear if the user is not able
to save in any location.
