+ UTF-8 encoding, and sends the appropriate character set
+ and header information to the web browser (STR #919,
+ STR #1007)
+ - Added a "set allowed users" interface to the web
+ interface so that you can set the list of allowed or
+ denied users/groups for a printer or class.

+ has special meaning in the shell, config files, and in
+ URIs (STR #917, STR #1202)
+ - Added a new application/x-csource MIME type, and
+ support for it to the texttops filter so that you can
