**Scope legend**: every feature can be added at a specific level:

* **`Account`**: added on an account; applies to every copier of that account.
* **`Copier`**: added on a specific copier (master → slave link); only affects that link.
* **`Account & Copier`**: can be added at either level; the copier-level setting overrides the account-level one for that copier.

Pages without a tag describe an entity or built-in capability rather than an add-on feature.
