Summary2837: Security level option
DescriptionThere's a trade-off between convenience and security. This trade-off comes up implicitly in various config options and usergroup options.

Have a simple dropdown in the Setup Wizard to mass-set these. 3 options:
 - Low security (convenient)
 - Moderate security
 - Ultra high security (inconvenient)

Explain in the option description that low security isn't inherently insecure, but does mean that if particular things are compromised then there aren't so many additional layers in place for safeguards.

Generally look at advice in our tut_web_hosting and tut_security tutorials and squeeze as much as possible into this.

We can also look at giving warnings at installation if a webhost isn't meeting our security advice.
