sails.config.policies

<!-- > FUTURE: > > Merge most of the contents of this file into the main reference section on policies. > Include a simple config reference table (with only one row with property: `*`) explaining how > this particular config module is read. But don't worry about trying to explain what policies are here-- instead, link to the full docs on the subject (again, to reduce duplicate content and make this all more maintainable) -->
