It is visible to a user setting up the package for the first time (as it 
affects the default behavior, and thus reduces the chance that you'll 
need to set up a custom config file).  It is invisible to users 
upgrading -- the users who are served by bumping PKGREVISION for changes 
which do affect them, and badly disserved by bumping PKGREVISION -- as 
you just did -- for invisible changes, thus spamming their pkg_chk 
output.
