[Opensim-dev] estate_settings.xml and default values for regions/estates

I can see that the need for and use of estate_settings.xml had gone 
in master.. which makes sense as one of the last of the old style 
config files used.  But the file did allow initialization values for 
a number of region parameters to be stated... and this proved useful 
where the provider wanted to ensure that any newly created region had 
some style features and constraints, such as  limited terrain height 
variance (my own use of this file), terrain textures (e.g. to make a 
whole sim's regions be a rocky and snow zone), or other things 
different to defaults.

Have all the values that previously could be specified by 
estate_settings.xml  been moved to settings that can be given 
somewhere else such as in OpenSim.ini/OpenSiml.ini.example?  Or has 
the ability to change the built in values for new region creation 
values gone?  The commitdiff just looks like the settings that came 
from estate_settings.xml all got deleted. But there may be a number 
of related commits which handle things?
