It's the right place for such things, other than queries being *forbidden* from
the errata (no questions, only answers... point being that we try to keep
support issues out of the errata, to keep it from being a massive buletin
board).
To answer your question, somewhat, you can override it by either disabling
error_reporting on the live site (as in, code and debug on one server, publish
on another) or ny writing your own error reporting.
I'll add this info to the security section, considering that it's one
of the issues that inspired me to add to it. :-)
