I vote for this one.
Changing "security" parameter immediately on the next major version is
too radical but it's something reasonable.

Why don't you include "os level" and "preferred master" parameter?
On Windows implementation, "server role" affects at least these
parameters:
- domain master
- preferred master
- domain logons
- os level
- local master
and maybe
- security
I think these parameters are left but their default value should be
changed "auto", depending on "server role" although can be set by
hand.
And it's reasonable that setting by hand causes a warning with
DEBUG(0,) that says " this parameter will be removed on next
major release..."
