As I said before, please go ahead and submit a possible solution (e.g. patch)
If you can live with a disclaimer at the top of /etc/drbd.conf: like
## WARNING
##
## Please review the defaults in /etc/drbd.d/global_common.conf,
## especially the error handlers, as they reboot the machine in case
of drbd failure,
## before enabling any drbd resources.
##
that would be perfectly fine to me.

I had to use google translate to figure out what you're saying..
That was for sure not my intention. I was just worried, that changing
the default makes things worse. And I assumed that's what you wanted.
As I said before, I'm fine changing comments in the configs to warn users.

Well, yes, IMO, this is a wishlist bug, that's how I set the severity
initially, because changing the defaults could make it worse and needs
further discussion.
wishlist
for any feature request, and also for any bugs that are very
difficult to fix due to major design considerations.
So, please answer me if adding the comment is an acceptable solution
for you and I'll upload a new version.
Thanks,
