In the release notes for 2.3.19 you talk about adding the possibility to add recipes through "Modules".
Would it be possible to add recipes without having access to the webserver?

Where I work we now have two smaller webplatforms, pmwiki & wordpress.
They are set up like this:
-no access to the server for users
-wp users get an admin account for the wp instance

So pmwiki users cannot install any recipes or skins by themselves which is:
-good - they can't screw things up
-bad - means a lot of work for admin when doing the initial setup.

wp users can install plugins & themes themselves which is:
-good - much less work for sysadmin during inital setup
-bad - they can install crappy insecure plugins etc...

I think the ideal solution for our site would be if users could install recipes themselves
via the wiki interface. As a sysadmin I would like to limit what kind of recipes they could
install, to set a limit like "only stable recipes, only PHP8 compatible, only responsive skins..."
