This is down to trusting the server admin at the end of the day, as with
many other similar things.  However, is there something that BF2CC could
provide to _players_ in the server to assure them that the server is
"clean"?

Here are a few ideas - the possibility for players to enumerate all
modules loaded by ModManager, the admin scripts loaded into memory and
also, a sanity check for BF2CC and related scripts itself (i.e. checking
scripts match released or versions deemed 'safe').

While this when implemented as a server side option could be open to
fiddling itself, but as long as it doesn't provide a false sense of
security, it might be a useful function for leagues etc.
