Comment(by nigel):

 (In [15618]) Store some more stuff from mysql.txt in config.xml.
 1) LocalHostName can now be specified in the file. No UI editing yet,
 though.
 2) The database connection parameters, as at the time the user chose it,
    are also saved there. Having it stored breaks the whole UPnP paradigm,
    (if the backend host is reconfigured, the saved details will be wrong)
    but if the backend is down, it allows connection, and it should also
    help scrips to connect when there is no mysql.txt. See #4265
