Extended Bans
Some list modes, such as channel mode b (ban), take a <nick>!<user>@<host> mask as their parameter. These list modes can be extended to support alternate forms of matching and actions. If prefixed with an ! then the behaviour is inverted.
Acting
Acting extended bans allow restricting actions that users can perform. Such actions can include preventing a user from speaking in a channel (requires the muteban module) or changing their nickname (requires the nonicks module). Acting extended bans can also be stacked with matching extended bans (see below).

Matching
Matching extended bans allow matching against extended user attributes such as connect class (requires the classban module) or TLS (SSL) fingerprint (requires the sslmodes module).
