applied, thanks!

I did some very minor follow-ups mostly to document the current default in
the schema and docs and a small style fix (well not even really style wise,
but rather making the part with assigning and checking the $bind_interface
variable slightly shorter).

While this is slightly niche it might still make sense to add this to the
web UI too (WoL is exposed via Node -> Options) for completeness sake.
