Loving the new extensions model, great improvements!

DNN v5.4.3

I have a few questions and a suggestion.

Would it be (or is it) possible to program DNN to determine whether or not a Portal Admin can:
See a tab in the Admin menu? (Just had a thought, move it to the host menu, but that's not possible.)
See a module in the list of available modules?
See but not change settings of a "Host" module/tab?

I am familiar with the Premium Modules option but that makes the module available to the portal, it does not determine if the Portal Admin has access to it or not. Which, if it is not assigned to the Portal then the Host can't add it either.

And I know that I could create a "Sudo-Admin" security role and make them an administrator over content but that would be too limiting when it comes to creating new tabs and adding modules to them. I may want to add tabs and modules to a Portal as a Host but not allow the Admin to move/remove/edit anything about the module or tab even.

This would be useful in the instance where you want someone to administer a Portal but not give them access to all aspects of the typical administrator role.

I imagine this would be done on the Module definition, same place as the Premium setting, add a setting for "Portal Admin" or something.

What are your thoughts or other ideas?

Thanks!

be aware that not all admin modules work properly for members of other roles.
