I like the general idea, but ultimately suffers the same problem in that people have to know about it. There actually is a setting to set the default bind address already.

If you can't change the default because of backwards compatibility and inertia, you can at least provide a well-documented, recommended, easy way of fixing the default.

Is there official documentation that tells users to set the default bind address as a best practice?

I wasn't thinking so much of just changing one setting, but rather having a way to easily reconfigure an installation to set multiple settings to improve security.

In addition, elevating this to the status of a command and documenting it as a best practice helps spread awareness.
