This seems sensible, but as I user I like to see an example in the
config file to change (especially in this case where it's a hash, so a
bit more complicated than just setting a variable).
As the example config file is generated from the defaults IIRC, this
will remove that example, so the docs should be exanpanded to give an
example of how to set it. Also we should explain anyway that now the
variable is defaulted but can be set as an override, so a change to
the man page is warranted. (Sorry no patch right now, got to dash).
