When running roundup as a multi-process application like CGI or WSGI,
the default value for the variable 'secret_key' in secion [web] is not
constant and will be different for each process. The reason is that it
uses a random value for initialisation if the item is unconfigured. This
random value is different in each process.

The implication is that with the (empty) default value for secret_key
REST-API updates will not work because the etag verification will fail
(at least if the first request to retrieve the etag and the second
request to do the update are serviced by different processes which is
very likely).

We should either come up with a fix or document this in the REST-API
documentation.
