ISTM we had decided that putting vast amounts of documentation into the
file comments was exactly the thing *not* to do.  It duplicates the SGML
documentation, thereby doubling the maintenance effort, to very little
purpose.  pg_hba's comments in particular had gotten quite out of hand
at one point, and have been pruned back severely.  Let's not follow the
same wheel of fate for postgresql.conf.
