Comment (by claudep):
I think that choosing to customize some behavior by a setting or by code
depends on:
* the configured value is strongly instance-specific, and might change
for each environment: -> setting
* the configured value is project-specific and is not supposed to change
on each deployment environment: -> code
For example, the SMTP host and port are completely dependent on the
machine on which the code is running. I find a bit strange to ask people
to change the code of a project or application each time they want to
deploy it on another environment. With this reasoning, I think that even
the timeout might be better set by a setting :-/
