Subject: Sample data for testers

I'm attaching a first try at making some sample data designed to make
testing easier and more efficient.  You can just put this in the
installation/sql/mysql folder prior to installing and it will show up as an
option.  Sorry, mysql only at this point.

Please feel free to try it out.

Have not tested yet your proposal.

One of the issue we got as testers/patchers for the 1.6/1/7/2.5
series was the fact that many options were not set to Yes in the
Components Global Options, or if done, were overriden by the default
menu items.
This has forced us into changing these settings for each new install,
to be sure something was not broken when patching.
Example: all the Written by, Published dates, etc. for articles.

I suggest to correct the new sample data for these. I.e. set all
parameters in menu items to Global and make sure general Options are
set to display all possibilities

That's a great example of how testing data can differ. We certainly don't
want global options set to display all possibilities in normal sample
data.. that would terrify new users. But we could do it in the testing data
that does make sense since it's easy to forget about some options and that
will help us remember all those details.  In 1.6 all of the defaults it
applies to for menus were set to "use global" in the xml (not sample data)
and if there are any places where that isn't true in the xml we should put
them back.
