Could bind-address get a safe and sane default? Downstreams would like to use defaults.. |

The current situation is that anyone who want bind-address=localhost obviously has it in the config file. That is, changing the default from * to localhost will break almost every MariaDB setup where the server accepts connections from outside. I don't see how we could safely do it. |

IMO breaking this in a major version would be OK, it's not like it's hard to fix and running it like that requires more thought and expertise anyway. If you think it's not OK an option would be to add a deprecation warning when running without bind-address set for a major release, then changing the behavior in the next major release. |
