The output from -XshowSettings vs. the large dump from -XshowSettings:security look good, I think the default vs. all split is quite good.  The format/style of the output is a bit different to the other sections in the -XshowSettings output. The other sections are more like name = value. What you have is okay, it just looks a bit different.  There are a few blank lines in the the "Security settings summary" output that you might want to cull. Also "Use -XshowSettings:security for verbose details" might be better as "... for security details". 

Also what would you think about the earlier suggesting to do the same for the locale output? The dump of all available locales seems excessive to print out by default.
