Hi Wolfgang,
I believe that it's possible to use the add-ons manager with limited
user rights. The only directory that has to be writable is
"[gvSIG_1.11_folder]\bin\gvSIG\extensiones" (substitute the backslashes
"\" with slashes "/" depending your needs), i.e. only where the
extensions are installed. ;)

Cheers,
Antonio
