Another possibility is to simply create scripts/secure.php, and
then someone wanting high security can do:

    include_once('scripts/secure.php');

Then we can stay with just a single sample-config.php file,
and the sample include line can go at or near the top of the
script (with appropriate explanation of what to do with it).
