There was also some talk recently about a setting for development and 
production environment for TYPO3. This could include:
- clear visual sign that dev-mode is active
- deprecation log enabled
- log level low
- dev log enabled (if installed)
- devIpMask enabled
- ...

In production mode many of those settings could be disabled by default 
or set to a sensible setting.

What do you think?
