Ah yes, I forgot about the requirement of a non-interactive mlmmj-make-ml.

I have some ideas about what would be nice to have in the configuration file.
(Although it could be made possible to override those if running as root)

- Unprivileged users who are allowed to make lists (Perhaps just a group)
- Directories in which new listdirs are allowed to be created
- Allowed list domains
- Allowed prepopulated skeleton control dirs
- Allowed custom scripts to run after list creation
- Allowed listtexts directories

Some of this might work better if grouped in profiles.

Nothing more comes to mind at this time.
