even non-course and sticky blocks.
The parent context is block_instances.parentcontextid.
The block context should be used for checking permissions directly
related to the block, like moodle/block:view or moodle/site:manageblocks.
However, if the block is displaying information about the current page,
for example the participants block showing who 'here', then it may be
better to use the context of the page where the bloack is appearing -
in other words $this->page->context - to check permissions about the
user's ability to see participants here.
Or, if the block is displaying something stronly related to courses,
for example, a course meny block, the block should probably use the
context for $this->page->course to check permissions.
There is a new implementation of require_js in lib/deprecatedlib.php,
based on $PAGE->requires.
There were a few other recently introduced functions in lib/weblib.php,
namely print_js_call, print_delayed_js_call, print_js_config and
standard_js_config. These have been removed, since they were never in
a stable branch, and all the places that used them have been changed
to use the newer $PAGE->requires->... methods.
get_require_js_code is also gone, and the evil places that were calling
it, even though it is an internal function, have been fixed.
Also, I made some minor improvements to the code I committed yesterday
for MDL-16695.
All that remains is to update all the places in core code that are
still using require_js.
(This commit also fixes the problem where the admin tree would not
start with the right categories expanded.)
That was becuase not enough information was being passed in for the blocks editing controls to construct the right URL to reload the page.
It is also now possible for admin external pages to add some UI next to the turn blocks editing on/off button. For example, when you are editing the list of course catgories, the turn editing off button is now in the right place.
* Move the show/hide advanced button a bit down the page.

* Fix the problem with the risks link to Moodle docs.
* Help icon by the permissions column heading.
* Tables with rotated <th>s, make them vertical-align: bottom.
* Rename explain.php and explainhascapability.php to check.php and explain.php
* Tool tips on the number headers in the explain table.
* Explain table - role names were missing.
* Allow link_to_popup_window to work with full URLs.
I have made them float right, and reduced the padding on the red box, so they don't cuause the height of the form to change so much, if the error fits to the right of the form control. I realise that some people may not like this, which I why I have done this in head only for now. I will revert this if told to.
