 Currently the guide documents about the address setting for
 Boss/components: ``It is the address used by the component on the b10-msgq
 message bus. The special components already know their address, but the
 usual ones don't. The address is by convention the thing after b10-, with
 the first letter capitalized (eg. b10-stats would have “Stats” as its
 address).''

 And later about using "DDNS" for DDNS: ``Likewise, "address" may look
 unnecessary because b10-ddns would start and work without specifying it.
 But for it to shutdown gracefully this parameter should also be
 specified.''

 I think it should be more automatic; we should not need to manually define
 address "FOO" for "b10-foo". Maybe it should be case insensitive and get
 rid of that convention "with the first letter capitalized").
