Github user aledsage commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/brooklyn-server/pull/812 @m4rkmckenna there is a "file-based exteranl config supplier" you can use for dev (`PropertiesFileExternalConfigSupplier`), and then switch to Vault or whatever when you're ready. But I think that @ahgittin's change here is a separate good addition as it means stock examples can work out-of-the-box without the user having to modify `brooklyn.cfg` to configure things like that, or to add the desired password to some file. --- I agree with @drigodwin's suggestion of giving a default in `visitors-creation-script.sql` so that we don't break other people's examples that might be referencing that file. For Brooklyn 1.0.0 we can remove the default, perhaps first warning people on the mailing list.
