Description
This is a proposal for a new (small) API for activity modules that want to print to the course page to display some information.
Examples of such modules are:
- label (included as an example in this patch)
- Face-to-face module (currently we tell people to hack Moodle to get this: http://docs.moodle.org/en/Integrating_Face-to-face_sessions_on_the_course_page
Basically, if a module has a function called modname_print_coursemodule_info, then it gets called instead of displaying the module name and icon on the course page.

My +1. It would be very helpful for this kind of functionality to replace the current hardcoded 'tracking' for forums in course/lib.php's print_section() function.
Another example would be the availability of resources to display a summary, or the availability of something like the Dialogue module to display an unread indicator.
