Feature Settings Locking for Managed User Deployments

[MTRichards]

As an ownCloud administrator, I want to be able to lock down certain ownCloud sync client features so that end users cannot make changes to them, and complicate management of the ownCloud deployment or break their client.

For example:

• Disable the ability to add more sync folders than already exist
• Change the network settings, most specifically the bandwidth throttling settings
• Enable / disable multi-account
• Edit ignored files

This feature sounds very enterprise centric. As of today we are already partially able to remove these options within the client themes.

This should be enough to fulfill this request?

Additional information as communicated by @msrex

The current branding based approach is not enough. There is the need to change these settings during live operations.

My thoughts:
This to some extent falls within the remote wipe feature in the meaning of server controlled settings and operations.

It could be combined with remote wipe, but it is definitely a different user story. More to come on feature / function here.
