I was being hypothetical  about what I feel it should be for consistency
with other settings.

Here, I'll replace what you snipped to make it clear again:

`----

I'm not saying this to be difficult - its what I assumed it would be
keeping in mind the caveats on other settings NOT being qualified so
that they do indeed default to the current server.
