pgAdmin has a mechanism to suggest values (currently for autovacuum and
listen_address only), which waits for expansion :-) I could think of a
wizard that asks decent questions, resulting in proposals.
Whether implemented as GUI or not, a questionaire and suggested
algorithms to calculate settings (eyeballed from Core) would be a good
starting point.
