[STR Closed w/Resolution]

FWIW, in Red Hat Enterprise Linux we'll be addressing this differently: all
options will still be in cupsd.conf but a new option
"ConfigurationChangeRestriction" will govern checks that are performed on
new cupsd.conf files that are received via POST.  Default value is "all",
meaning that all changes to security-sensitive options via POST will be
forbidden.  Other options are "none" (prior behaviour) and "root-only"
(only root-authenticated users may make such changes).
