I believe a directory under /etc... /etc/defaults is used just for init scripts,
or am I wrong?

I believe it would be better to have it before upload as putting a configuration
file under /var is an FHS violation. But you can just submit your patch and we
can fix it in a second svn commit before uploading to the archive... I have no
problem working on that if you like me to, and it's better for me to start with
your patch already in.

Thanks,
