Oh, another setting that should be a "default" for most users is to initdb
automatically with locale of C. If they need a different locale, they
should have to pick it.

The performance of Postgresql with a locale other than C when doing like
and such is a serious ding. I'd much rather have the user experience the
faster searches first, then get to test with other locales and see if
performance is good enough, than to start out slow and wonder why they
need to change their initdb settings to get decent performance on a where
clause with like in it.
