Base URL default setting

["Johnson, Jonathan" <jj...@454.com>]

Each time I reinstall Continuum I find I often forget to change the base
URL from localhost to the machine name.  When developers get build
notification emails their links go to localhost which obvious do not
work.  

I wish the Continuum installation/initialization could just pick up the
machine name of the server rather than using "localhost".  Localhost is
always problematic and should be avoided.  It would almost be better if
it just said "[your server machine name here]".

New users will constantly get tripped up on this out of the box
experience.

you can file an issue for this. But we use localhost instead of the machineName:port because some 
user use continuum behind an apache proxy
