#2019: Configuration section disabled_components uses negative logic
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 Reporter:  trac at botimer.net              |       Owner:  jonas
     Type:  defect                        |      Status:  new  
 Priority:  low                           |   Milestone:  0.9  
Component:  general                       |     Version:  0.9b1
 Severity:  minor                         |   Keywords:  disabled_components trac.ini  |  
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 The [disabled_components] section of trac.ini uses the form:

 {{{
 [disabled_components]
 trac.versioncontrol.web_ui = yes
 }}}

 It may be cleaner, especially for non-native English speakers, to use
 ''disabled'', rather than ''yes'', as the value indicating that a
 component should be disabled. In general, asking negative questions should
 be avoided, am I wrong? ''</example>''

 This should be a trivial change/fix with a small, but tangible benefit.
