Comment(by nigel):

 1) Scripting environments should probably have the "default" values hard-
 coded in, just in case there isn't a mysql.txt?

 2) If there is a local mythbackend running, a query to a particular port
 (''e.g.'' the default 6543) could provide one for Perl/Python/Java scripts
 to parse? It is only on random frontend only machines that this is really
 difficult.

 3) UPnP is also '''''possible''''', as is prompting the user for
 dbHostName, dbUserName, dbPassword, but hopefully that won't be necessary?
