I want my module to disable some of the modules that would normally be enabled. Possible?

If you’re building a complete application (for example, selecting the Standalone Application option for a module suite) just use the Libraries panel of the suite’s Properties dialog to exclude modules you don’t need from clusters you are otherwise including.

You can also go through the Auto Update Services API: Geertjan shows how
