0.9.22
Added: A new archiveinvalidation method; BSA redirection (Thanks Quarn!)

Fixed: Many omod group bugs caused by the 'None' group getting lost when opening the settings menu.
Fixed: The warning given when trying to delete an active omod now has some resemblance to reality
Fixed: obmm would sometimes try to force deactive omods which had already been deleted, resulting in crashes on startup
Fixed: Unchecking the warn on script ini edit option didn't actually stop obmm from warning you about scripts editing oblivion.ini
Fixed: Force disable was only trying to disable omods which were already disabled

Fixed: An empty string wasn't considered to be a safe path, meaning that the 'For Each ...' functions couldn't act on the root of the omod

Tweak:Added a warning to the launch oblivion button to point out that it does not have to be used for obmm to work

Tweak: On the old conflict detector, all dialog overlaps now show up as minor conflicts.
