The mechanism behind is apparently that the password in `settings.json`
is overwritten with the hash of the
password<ref>https://superuser.com/questions/113649/how-do-you-set-a
-password-for-transmission-daemon-the-bittorrent-client-server</ref>
which is a good idea, but requires a good implementation and
documentation. Both the configuration file and the `settings.json.tmpl`
are undocumented. The purpose of `settings.json.tmpl` is unclear and
change to it don't seem to have an effect.
