 Hmm ... There are some I'm reluctant to remove from BroControl, like
 mailto and mailsubjectprefix (and logdir, though I'm not sure why Bro
 needs to know about that).

 How about instead (1) allowing people to override them manually, but
 (2) giving a warning, like in "check", if they configure seomthing
 else than BroControl would set (with an option to suppress such
 warnings).
