Yeah, good point. We should tweak the text in that file. "localsql"  
will work, but only if it is not being backed by shares...as was the  
defaults in earlier versions of Horde, hence the reason that using  
'localsql' worked for you in the past.

Yup. Still will work, if not using shares (see above).

Using shares, a hook is the *only* way you will be able to do this.
