 Note that I add new line to prebuilding event for compile message
 file. I will see for this.

  Ok. You're great! :-)

I think that parameters table is a better place for admin password. We can
move admin password from userStore to parameters table, if we found admin
record in userStore, for backward compatibility

  I hope that I know cause. I will fix that.

May be we need silently move database to new location? If no db files
present in new location and they are exist in exe directory.

Ok will do that after all bugfixing.

We can not do this at this time. We need rewrite CommandLineParser for
expose default values, or create new class CommandLineDefault. One of
this classes will be seen by WebAdmin.
