If this mod is allowed

So I was looking around some forge mods that gave no extra benefit over the next player and found this one: InGame Info XML and what it does is gives extra info in the game screen like time of day, biome, light level, EXP, FPS, and Entites in any location on your screen you set it as (default is in the top left). Defaultly in the bottom left-hand corner states the item that is in your hand, and defaultly in the bottom right-hand corner has what armor you are wearing and its durability and right above it gives your beacon and i guess potion effects as well. So i was just wondering if this mod is allowed on MineRealm that is all.
Here is a screenshot of me using it:

So basically just tidying up the F3 debug screen info and adding other info accessible via holding H and pressing F3?
Interesting

First of all, you can always see what Biome you're in and what FPS you're at in just regular F3 mode. But I would think this isn't allowed, as it shows the time, how much longer a potion effect is, and durability on your armour. Sure, you could check these things simple also, but PVP wise it would possibly be unfair in a way.

Well i can see the effects and the armor being questionable but you can disable the things in the config files of the mod. And how would seeing the Minecraft time and day be a reason for it to not be allowed, it basically says "hey here is the time when the sun goes down and when it comes up" if it is because you can see what time it is underground, updates in the terrain for your Minecraft can allow you to see the sky underground sometimes.

F3+h gives you your armor life anyway. And all you have to do is /time to see the time. :P
All of these besides sunrise/sunset times are able to be seen through vanilla minecraft anyway one way or another. I personally don't see a problem with this but you should wait for an official statement saying whether or not it's allowed. Because while I think it's harmless I can see why it would seem like an advantage to have it all readily available on your screen.

I do hope so, I regularly go MineRealm spelunking with the entities data on-screen looking for mob spawners.
The standard debug info does take up a lot of screen space though.
