I'd be all for it. Possible side effect is that people perhaps get an impression that the built-in Zookeeper is production ready. Another side effect is that users that on purpose run Solr standalone will now need to run with -l flag to avoid starting in coud mode by default. But that's their fault if they don't read the upgrade notes of course...
