Information control mod; server sided config controlling access to which debug screen elements are visible, as well as player names, item IDs/damage, option to blacklist client-sided mods such as Xray ect.

Not really possible. That information needs to be sent to the client in order for the game to work properly. With out that data you could not interact with the server world nore could that world interact with the player.
Think about it with out the coordinates how would your client know where your steve is located. Same for the IDs and Xray. All that information used for those have to be sent to each players computer. After that it's out of the control of the server.

You could make a client side mod that could do it but you would have trouble forcing players to use it.

Even if you coded it so that the mod tells the server whether or not it's installed and block access if it's not. It would be far easier for someone else to code a mod that only sends that recognition signal that allows the client to access the server with out the lockout mod.

So yah the only thing that really works is self control.

All I'm asking for is a mod that can turn that stuff off by default, if players of my pack "need" that stuff to play, I really don't care if they use it or not. I just want to make it so it actually requires a little work to use that stuff. Maybe like change 3 separate variables in 3 separate files per option maybe... (or just 1 in 1 if 3 in 3 is too hard to code)

Tartarus.. I mean at work. Same thing really.

Ok- mod would need to be client sided as well; to hide the visual overlay from the debug screen- the whole point would be to enforce a no-gps rule if the server admin desired that.
The config/control would be server sided; client side receives this information and acts accordingly- allowing the client game to use the information, but denying the player physical access to it.
Coordinates become invisible.
Floating player names are hidden.
If IDs are hidden then "Iron Pickaxe 216:17" becomes "Iron Pickaxe"​
If the mod on not installed, then the server disconnects the player with "disconnected- please install information control v X.Yz"
If it sees a blacklisted mod, then the server disconnects the player with "disconnected- please uninstall 'Modname'"

Dirt to diamonds? Pfff, Diamonds to Dirt is where it's at now! Who needs those useless shiny blue rocks.

I made that joke before. :D
It's not actually a bad idea for a mod. There is a lot that could be done with a mod pack that only lets you make dirt with diamonds.
