[Opensim-dev] Robust.ini.example

I have been cross checking things in the OpenSim.ini and Robust.ini 
example files.

Can I check on what the default is for Robust for the realm used?  I 
think the realm used is actually "useraccounts" (i.e. new style)  as 
my setup is working with defaults and I have deleted the "users" 
table as recommended at 
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/0.7_Release#Database_changes

But in Robust.ini.example it says it defaults to "users".. but the 
example given and commented out in Robust.ini.example (but NOT in 
Robust.HG.ini.example) is to Realm = "useraccounts".  Is it the case 
that it defaults to useraccounts but can be stated as "users" to get 
the legacy table?

The style would be to give the default used in the comment and to 
describe any options in another comment I think... so  would this be 
a correct comment to have... in both Robust.ini.example and 
Robust.HG.ini.example?

; * This is the new style authentication service. Currently, only MySQL
; * is implemented. "Realm" is the table that is used for user lookup.
; * It defaults to "useraccounts", which uses the new style.
; * Realm = "users" will use the legacy tables as an authentication source
; *
[AuthenticationService]
     ; for the server connector
     LocalServiceModule = 
"OpenSim.Services.AuthenticationService.dll:PasswordAuthenticationService"
     ; Realm = "useraccounts"


I have a tidied up version of the ini.example files.. which of source 
has not effect in tests as it only changes the contents of 
comments... but it could help users avoid configuration 
confusion.  But it would be nice to have confirmation that my 
interpretation is correct.
