Similar to what's in FMS.

Could add these to /admin/debug.

Not sure what to do about passwords. Maybe something like secrets.yml?

[14:58:26]  <dave_w>     sending the love to matthew for the /admin/config page in FMS, one of my all time fave New Features of FMS during my tenure \o/  — just used it again
[15:05:25]  <gareth>     dave_w / matthew we thought about doing that but it would expose secrets (e.g. DB creds) to admin users who don't Need To Know that info. Did you handle that somehow?
[15:09:57]  <struan>     gareth: the values displayed are specified in the template so it just doesn't show those
[15:10:14]  <gareth>     nice :)
[15:11:05]  <struan>     means you need to update the template when you add something to the config but that's hardly the worst thing in the world
[15:11:50]  <matthew>    and it does some specific things with specific values. https://github.com/mysociety/fixmystreet/blob/master/templates/web/base/admin/config_page.html is the template
[15:11:57]  <matthew>    it also prints out the git version which is handy
[15:12:59]  <matthew>    (live FMS is v1.5.2-40-g201d5cc == v1.5.2 tag, 40 commits later, hash 201d5cc)

Makes it easier for less technical users to look up specific
configuration values – or indeed, save technical users opening an ssh
session.
