csilvers added a comment to T12976: Use a server for pygments?.

If writing, deploying, and maintaining this server doensn't seem like much work to you (and it may reasonably not be), write this server yourself and replace the pygmentize binary on your system with a lightweight client written in a language with a fast startup time that just calls through to the server.

Doh!, I was looking at the jshint engine before, not the eslint engine. It looks like phab doesn't have built-in support for eslint yet. But this looks promising: maybe the autofixing eslint reports *is* on an error-by-error basis.

(As a side note, the way we'd support this on our ubuntu phabricator machine is to write an upstart script to start the pygments server on startup -- it would also restart the server if it died -- and to run the server under pypy for even more performance happiness.)

csilvers added a comment to T9339: Config Edit "Value" field is confusing.

(But, and this is a slightly separate issue, it might be nice to have some indication in the 'default' section of which of those values is the current actual value -- maybe just highlight the value, or put a star next to it, or the text 'current working value' or some such. It's not necessary, and I know it will always be the first non-empty value that's marked in that way, but it would remove all ambiguity, especially in cases like the database has the empty string as its value, and a config file has a non-empty string, so the empty string is the default but it may not be clear from the UI.)

Another possibility -- I'm not saying this is a good idea -- is to use unix groups. That is, have users set up a new "phabricator" unix group, and add the webserver and daemon users to that group. Then use umask to make sure that everything that the webserver and the daemons do are group-writable, and that they chgrp() to the phabricator group when starting up.

The default android browser is called 'Browser', and I believe is installed on default on all android phones (it's the browser used in WebView). My phone has a search bar at the top of every screen; if I type a query into that, it displays search results using the default browser. When I type a url into the search bar, it takes me to that page using the default browser as well. I don't know if your experience would be the same as mine, or different.
