Comment (by Ipstenu):

 This is what we did at the Bank I worked at many many moons ago!

 localhost = This is on my laptop and I may be using it on an airplane, so
 remote calls should not happen. This is like dev, only _potentially_
 offline. (NB: We did call it localhost so it was 100% clear it was all
 local all the time, and something familiar to our ESL devs)

 development = I'm dev'ing some code and may need remote data, but
 basically I'm going to be hitting refresh a lot and swearing.

 staging = This is a mirror of production/live, in a perfect world, and
 should do everything EXCEPT muck up my stats, thanks. (NB: We called this
 "User Acceptance Testing" - this is where clients went and clicked and
 said "Hey I love it except this color...")

 production/live = Your real site.
