 Sorry by reopening what a commiter closed, but 'localhost' is for me a
 reminder of network connection to 127.0.0.1

 The comment as now with 'localhost' suggests me that something like this
 occours behind the scenes:

 {{{
 if DATABASE_HOST == '':
     DATABASE_HOST = 'localhost'
 }}}

 who is simple not true.

 What about changing from "Set to empty string for localhost." to "Set to
 empty string for local host (via file socket)." ?

 At least, I ask you to allow a change from 'localhost' to 'local host'.
