Egad.  And no doubt also complain about politically incorrect settings
of full_page_writes, add_missing_from, standard_conforming_strings, etc?
Mebbe throw a warning if listen_addresses allows any nonlocal
connections, since obviously you expose yourself to danger that way.

If you think you can get the motion to pass, propose removing these
options entirely.  Don't bother us with nanny-ism.
