On further thought, for many of these we should also consider whether it
would make sense to add a UI front-end setting for them. The ability for
users to pick their theme, for instance. There's no compelling reason
why that should be restricted to a hard-coded setting in config.php.

Title:
  Document more $cfg options in config-dist.php

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In the forum discussion
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5458 , I discovered
  the $cfg->sitethemeprefs config.php option I was completely unfamiliar
  with, which allows users to set their own personal theme. It is
  mentioned in the manual section about account settings, but there's no
  one central location where all the config options are listed.

  I think it would be a great idea if we went through the code, found as
  many of the config options as we can (by searching for $CFG and
  get_config()), and documented them in the config-dist.php file. This
  can be in the form of comments, in a section below the
  minimum/recommended config settings. And as an on-going thing, when
  people add new config.php settings, they can add them to config-
  dist.php
