Or said another way, it's a step in the proper direction.

I think one of the most important things to have with examples is meta 
information about the configuration (both server and client side) that 
it is being used and the version.

E.g. Clients are configured to talk directly to Squid (vX.Y) proxy 
server on port 80 / 443 wherein SSL "bumping" a la. monkey in the middle 
for caching purposes on a low bandwidth / metered connection.

/Just/ having configuration examples doesn't do much in and of itself 
without knowing the context the examples are from.  If anything /just/ 
examples is worse in that people have no context and are left with 
trying to identify the version, what was being and intended to be done, 
and then translating that to the version & configuration they are 
working with.  This is something that's non-trivial for seasoned (Squid) 
administrators and can be near impossible to new (Squid) administrators.
