@MarcoFalke this changes more than just docs, probably needs a wallet and RPC label. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I would rather improve the description.
BTW, currently RPC help is very clear:
bitcoin/src/wallet/rpcwallet.cpp
Line 147 in 898f560
Reasons for rename:
1) Default value is `<datadir>/wallets` so calling it `-walletsdir` instead
of `-walletdir` would be more internally consistent
2) Directory can contain more than one wallet so plural makes more sense
3) This makes it harder to confuse -walletdir option with -wallet option
if we store wallets in their own directories as proposed in
bitcoin#11466 (comment) and
implemented in bitcoin#12216

Removing this from 0.16 milestone - during the IRC meeting it was found that many options apply to defaults, so adding |

Should be closed then because changing the arguments after a release is a no-go. |

Agree with the above, as well as @laanwj's point "shorter option names are easier to remember/type". The behavior of these parameters did lead to some confusion during code review, but with the proper docs hopefully it will be fine for users. |

Requesting 0.16 tag, as it's probably not worth changing otherwise.
This makes grateful use of the fact that @sipa used an underscore for
address_typeandchange_typeRPC arguments.
