Comment (by asn):

 Not sure if this semantic of single underscore would be clear to our
 users, and it might even confuse them. Perhaps given what you write above
 it would make sense to just remove the underscores from the config option?
 The man page already says ''Please use extreme care if you are setting
 this option manually.''.
