Well, the CVs version comes with all modules Active. I dont know about
Stable.
 But even if I setup module as Hidden it still shows up in DropDown box. But
I cannot select it. When I select the module and click submit it returns an
empty page with same DropDown box.
So it either should not show the module in DropDown at all if it is not
Active; should give some kind of message :"Module not active".
Or allow configuration for all modules.
 In the end, the config is only allowed for admins, we should not worry
about confusing them.
