Make it plugin-controllable. The global variable $EXPORT is an array
with the keys from $INFO (and other info?) that need to be sent to the
client. The default keys are just those required for standard DW, for
the sake of security and also not to clutter the HTML with redundant
data. If some plugin wants a key it can add it to $EXPORT. I don't think
there needs to be a new event, there are plenty of chances to set the
key before the arrays are exported.
So there's still a centralized way of sending global variables to the
client, but DW doesn't send more information than necessary. And it's
up to the plugins to do the Right Thing.
