The option makes sense, but I think it's a big risk

	We could just add as an optional setting in management to allow JS or
anything else that would be insecure, off by default and allow the end
user to choose… on a very closed system I agree it would be good.

	Thinking aloud here, you can write javascript in the bootstrap
template – so it would probably be handy if you could upload a .js
file, because anything more than trivial is going to be a right pita
to write in the wizard. .js is currently blacklisted. Given all the
other security updates recently, do you think we are opening up a
major hole if we allowed .js? Either by uploading a script file, or by
pointing to a url somewhere?
