The new messaging default settings can be set in messages.php and deployed
during installation. This also ensures the removing of settings on plugin
uninstallation and contains the update script to populate current default
settings on the existing system when the new feature is introduced.
For security reason we have to avoid using library functions in upgrade
function, so we set defaults the blind way. At this point we do not expect
plugins to have individual messaging defaults presets anyway. The site
defaults are the same as were set for each user using
message_set_default_message_preferences function.

Existing user messaging preferences should accomodate default settings and
permissions. This also includes some changes to default outputs preferences.

Some of the callers have never been fully implemented (help file never existed)
so I just dropped the help icon. In other cases, new help_icon() is
used. The help icons support in the messaging must be reviewed by the
subsystem maintainer.

- fixed user styles in base theme
- added new divs for better control on user profile and user index pages
- reduced data on course user profiles down to minimum
- removed user/tabs.php completely and all uses of it
- changed default user icon pix to something very bland (bye bye smiley cake)
I did some further work tidying up the form. I also just treat the popup like another plugin and moved all the config into the plugin.
This still needs help buttons everywhere now!
This new messaging system replaces all the various email_to_user() calls.
They are now replaced by events triggers, and the messages are then
processed centrally according to user preferences and sent to one or more
processors (email, popup, jabber etc...)
This code is not finished yet, a lot of work still has to be done on the
interface. However, the basic structure is there and should be working.
Luis and I will be reviewing and polishing this heavily in the next few weeks.
