Hi folks,
my email might have gotten lost in the madness breaking out on dev@,
so I'm sending my patch to this forum.
It's a proposal, for trunk. I'd like to get some feedback, before
committing it, since it's a rather drastic step away from our old
configuration and recommendation (which ended up being copy/pasted
in many a distribution's configuration files).
(No feedback means yes, that's brilliant Igor, please commit it now)
