Thanks for that patch!  I was just about to ask for something like that. 
Between your patch and the "ADMIN_CATEGORIES" array, I've trimmed out the 
stuff that most of our users (announce-only for the most part) don't need.

That leads to the next question...  Where are the defaults initially set 
from?  A few of the things I've hid are things I'd still like to flip a 
value on.  I know I could do this with "config_list", but I'm wondering if 
there is somewhere to twiddle the initial defaults.

Thanks,

Charles
