Steps to reproduce

  1. run : "python -m pylint --generate-rcfile | grep disable="

Current behavior

The default value for pylint is populated with a generous number of messages into the "disable" configuration by default.

This list is documented : https://pylint.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference_guide/features.html#messages-control-options

Expected behavior

We should document WHY this list is here.

This will help users decide if they should keep that default list, or wipe it and start fresh with their own customized list.

pylint --version output

$ python35 -m pylint --version
