+1 for this, as some people usually tend to start uncommenting options 
and writing the dialplan below the (long) sample configuration, which 
makes it annoying to read, understand and modify, to not say insecure. 
It would be very nice if such thing as very short working sample 
configurations are seen on more files like iax.conf, and another big 
ones. BTW, sometimes I use the original .sample files as a reference.
