Hi Ronald,
If you don't know exactly what you're doing in localconf.php, you run
the risk of messing up your website. Do so at your own peril.

I don't really understand your question though. Do you mean which of the
listed settings I recommend? In that case, none as it depends very much
on what you're trying to accomplish and I don't know that. 

At first glance it seems that these "special" settings are all available
through the 'All configuration' option in the install tool. If they're
not, that's usually for a good reason.. TYPO3, being an open source
project, isn't the kind of software that contains backdoors to enhanced
functionality or what not. If a setting works and is stable, it'll be in
the install tool.. like the warning e-mail address. There's nothing
intrinsically special about these settings.

There is no mandatory order when assigning values to variables, which is
what you're doing in localconf.php. Just note that if you assign a value
to the same variable twice, the last value in line will overwrite all
earlier ones.
