As discussed on issue #15225, it should be possible for system administrators to disable the 1-click installation system. The plan is to disable the feature by default, but make it relatively easy to turn on when it is explicitly desired. 1. At the moment we cannot guarantee that all Apps published on the Odoo Apps Store are safe. And it is a security risk to let end-users deploy Python code on their Odoo servers without requiring any review/deployment by a competent system administrator. We will work on improving the validation process of the Store, but this will require time, and won't probably be a 100% safe process in any case. 2. The one-click install feature is however really useful to help non-technical users install Apps, as long as the feature has been explicitly allowed by the system administrator. This is a common feature in other software suites as well. So we'd like to keep it as an opt-in feature. 3. Administrators of multi-tenant servers, cloud hosting services, etc. understandably expect to be able to turn off the feature for security/control reasons. 4. By turning off the feature by default, but still exposing it in the UI, we keep it *discoverable* for users. The error message should be helpful to direct users to their sysadmins. 5. By using the permissions of the download folder as a flag for turning off the feature, we avoid introducing an extra server parameter. The folder is still created (read-only) by default, for the sole purpose of making it easier to locate. Fixes #15225
