Rather than attaching the problem with code, I decided to simply update the config file documentation.

As the userbase expands the documentation will need to be more comprehensive about exclusions and omissions, along with better highlighting for core areas.

I would be useful if Stas could comment on whether these changes would have assisted in debugging the faulty config file.
