<p>Where several settings are grouped into a single dict, <em>avoid</em> the
convention where the whole block is commented out, resulting in
comment lines starting <code># #</code>, as this is hard to read and confusing
to edit. Instead, leave the top-level config option uncommented, and
follow the conventions above for sub-options. Ensure that your code
correctly handles the top-level option being set to <code>None</code> (as it
will be if no sub-options are enabled).</p>
