Aha, so Steve and you believe this will become the next great thing after sliced bread. Sorry but I remain sceptical. :)
I would've done it differently: have it default 'n' and once it turns out that the major distros have enabled it and *actually* use it, *then* simply remove the config option. Like we usually do with functionality. Not the other way around.
In any case, I've disabled it on my machines and will wait for it missing to come back and bite me. :-P
