site options?

 The get_option($setting) function in WordPress allows plugin to short
 circuit options with the pre_option_$setting filter:

 {{{
 // Allow plugins to short-circuit options.
 $pre = apply_filters( 'pre_option_' . $setting, false );
 }}}

 It also allows the option's value to be overridden as the value is
 returned:

 {{{
 return apply_filters( 'option_' . $setting, maybe_unserialize( $value ) );
 }}}

 Could similar functionality please be added to the get_site_option() WPMU
 function (in wp-includes/wpmu-functions.php)?

 This would allow mu-plugins to filter get_site_option() calls.

 An example use of this could be to let certain users upload special file
 types (by using custom filters on the get_site_option('upload_filetypes')
 ).

 I can submit a patch if required.

 Thanks.
