Back-end tweaks

  • 'Assign sections' from Themes panel only selects its own sections.

  • New articles>multi_edit.$method callback on Articles list panel.
  • User panel callbacks:
    user>fields and user>from to manipulate the query
    user>controls to affect the button area
    user_ui>list.row (pluggable_ui) for adding table data
    user>steps for plugins to register custom panel-level functionality
