True.  I'm just replying here to note that this and other tunables of
the rc.d scripts are documented in rc.conf(5):

	% man rc.conf

If anyone happens to find an option that is not documented, then it's a
bug of the manpage and the freebsd-doc people will be glad to hear about
it; either with a simple post to the list or (preferably) through a new
problem report submission :-)
