Indeed, this would be useful.

Specifically, the field is featured_mod. If the featured_mod is phantomx, no live replays should be permitted. Simple. That also means your code would not have to iterate through the list of mods to make this decision.

Somewhere in the FAF codebase, there is a server that handles live replay. Somewhere in that code, that server decides whether or not to setup a live replay stream. A single line of code to deny live replay streams if it's a custom game using phantomx would fix the problem where it is trivial for a third party to cheat and tell everyone in a phantom game who the phantoms are.
