default settings can't run two nodes on the same computer

Description
The default settings run a webport, and try to bind to port 8123, so the second node so started fails to start.
To fix this bug we could:
a) make it run no webport by default b) make it attempt to run a webport but start anyway if it can't c) make it get a different port number if 8123 is occupied
other ?

er, that's --webport=none, or --webport none, or -p none.

Yeah, I think I agree. The default values of the params are for a single-user machine, and for the kind of user who wants one node. If you want multiple nodes on your machine, or you are sharing a machine with other users, then you'll have to learn how to configure webport yourself.

d) document that if you want to do this, you must pass 'p none' to all but one of them, to disable the webport.
I suspect that we will either be able to cleanly support an easy single-node everything-gets-set-up-for-you case, or multiple nodes, but not both..
