Like the other irc services they include is_operator, is_admin or is_superadmin in the code, so they can just change one command to restrict the users from acessing the command based on how much you can trust the individuals. It a very simple code to add, and everyone does it that is a experienced programmer. (2) you can not except everyone to know or learn c code or force a individual to learn it to work around your code. A good programmer makes it easy for the user to customize the security without making major changes to the code. You should know this.
