How to remove the knative-local-gateway?

[joke]

Hi,

the documentation in config-istio says the local gateway can be removed if a service mesh is in place:

# A cluster local gateway to allow pods outside of the mesh to access
# Services and Routes not exposing through an ingress.  If the users
# do have a service mesh setup, this isn't required and can be removed.

But I don't see how this can be done. If I don't specify a line like that, the default kicks in:
local-gateway.knative-serving.knative-local-gateway: "knative-local-gateway.istio-system.svc.cluster.local"

Causing this error message:
type: 'Warning' reason: 'InternalError' failed to get Gateway: gateway.networking.istio.io \"knative-local-gateway\" not found

The support for this mesh syntax has been remove in this pull request.

Regards

We're making tweaks to the configuration here: #1247

I wonder if it makes sense to better express no localgateway programming in that newer config once that change lands

Though at a minimum it seems like we should update the comment

on that note: support for delegate virtual services would be cool: #1003

Can you comment on that issue - with your use case and how it helps you?
