[IRCServices] Services Suggestion(s)

would it be possible to see any of these features in the services at any
time?

a) a getpass-like command (sendpass?) that emails the user their password
(email program probably setup during services configuration/compilation)
b) a 'operserv level' option in the services.conf for commands like getpass,
maybe using levels like 1,2,3 for oper, admin, root -- some way that one
would restrict certain commands (such as not allowing service opers to
retrieve plain passwords.)
c) the ability to create additional names for the same bot, while keeping
the *serv's for compatibility. (i was thinking along the lines of just
having cooler-sounding names for bots when in channels)
d) a services command to create bot aliases (like /operserv alias add
chanserv TheBouncer ident name email host at mask) that also updates existing
aliases. This command could include the ability to create the user with all
forms of identification visible to the user, such as nick, ident, name,
email, and hostmask.
e) a services command to remove bot aliases (like /operserv alias del
TheBouncer)
f) an additional option with chanserv 'set join' to pick the name of a
chanserv alias to join.
g) a services command to force an alias to join a channel (i know this can
be done with raws, but a command would be nicer)

Well, that turned out longer than I expect. Any comments or suggestions are
appreciated.
