Please pick 4f4d0b42bae (Merge branch 'js/empty-config-section-fix', 2018-05-08) as the base of this new series (am needs -3 to apply), although I developed this series on origin/master.

Yeah me, too. Here is a proper fix (i.e. only pay Paul, without the robbery), and a documentation of the second bug that we discovered.

The first patch stands as is unchanged, and the second and third patch are different enough that range-diff doesn't want to show a diff.

Thanks, Stefan
