I see what you mean. I don't think this can be "fixed", since you need
to wait after LocalSettings has been included to set those variables
which rely on other variables. So that leaves us with the option of
clarifying the documentation. As someone who has fallen on it, how do
you think it would be expressed to note that the default value that we
are reporting on those pages won't be effective until after
LocalSettings execution?
