I know this is mainly about tuning for performance but I do think you ought 
to give the option to change at least 'listen_address'.  Something like:

Accept connections on:     - Local connections (Unix sockets/localhost)
                                        - All TCP/IP interfaces
                                        - Specific IP addresses: 
___________ (comma-seperated list)

and maybe a pointer to the pg_hba.conf docs for further info.

Regards,

Ben
