The former controls whether Mahara should send any e-mail. If set to false, Mahara will never send email. Good for setting up a test system when you don't want to muck around with users' email addresses to prevent sending.

This is controlled through a new Blocktype method - allowed_in_view.
Various code had to be changed to listen to this method, mostly around
the display of the category browser.

When making a template, all blocktypes are available.
