--[[
	The settings interface reads and writes its configuration using UCI.
	The corresponding config file is /etc/config/wifibox. To have an initial
	set of reasonable settings (and allow users to easily return to them),
	any key not found in the UCI configuration is looked up in the (immutable)
	'base configuration' (base_config.lua). This file also contains constraints
	to check if newly set values are valid.
	
	By the way, returning correct values in get()/fromUciValue() for booleans has been fixed at a
	relatively convenient time purely thanks to the unit tests...just to indicate they are useful. :)
