This key will make you shoot yourself in the head.  It's been published by
Apple since the 10.2.x era, I believe, but isn't actually looked at by
either 10.2.x or 10.3.x.  It might finally be used on 10.4.x...

However, googling for it, came up with this as the first hit:

While it's more work for you, it seems to actually get the job done, instead
of just being a plist entry that does nothing useful yet.
