On first glance, it's not obvious how the config files in these
directories are treated. Is the defaults/ directory scanned for valid
.ini files which are then processed?
The defaults/ directory contains scripting.ini.defaults. To enable
these settings, what should the user do? Rename to
defaults/scripting.ini, then edit? Is it necessary to copy to
override/scripting.ini and edit instead?
In my opinion, having both a directory a *.ini.defaults extensions is
one too many. Perhaps we can get away with the two directories
containing only .ini files?
config/OpenSim.ini.example
config/available/*.ini
config/override/*.ini
Or we could have just one directory which contains *.ini.defaults (or
*.ini.example) files alongside *.ini files:
config/OpenSim.ini.example
config/*.ini{,.defaults}
To enable settings, just rename <whatever>.ini.defaults to <whatever>.ini.
