Title:
  Dangerous advice for shared hosting in config-defaults.php

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  In htdocs/lib/config-defaults.php, we currently have the following:

    // directorypermissions - what permissions to use for files and directories 
in 
    // dataroot. The default allows only the web server user to read the data. 
If 
    // you're on shared hosting and might want to download the contents of your 
    // dataroot later (e.g. for backup purposes), set this to 0777. Otherwise, 
    // leave it as is!
    //$cfg->directorypermissions = 0700;

  I don't see a reason for the 0777 recommendation. That should probably
  be a 0755.
