Indeed all port MUST be able to be to be explicitly specified otherwise by by servers. It not feasible to have one port randomly assign itself BETA or not people should know by now, need another port create config param for it, the two should be one.
Absolutely!
Related question: If the desired port is unavailable, should the binary still try to grab the next one available, or hard-fail? I'd prefer the latter, because I'd want to know if the port moved, and not have it silently shift around due to some unrelated phenomenon. But for some that might mean a middle-of-the-night call when a server mysteriously goes down. Perhaps another config parameter to select the failure mode is called for.
