Having followed this thread from the beginning, I have to agree with  
Nicolas on this. What you are proposing are Account Manager features.

The user chooses to use an account manager so they do not HAVE to run  
around to each machine to make changes. If you want to extend the  
features of the account manager to provide non-Boinc related tasks  
that is fine. The user can attach to the account manager you design  
and use whatever features you choose to provide.

Thanks, Jim
