What about security issues? I'd rather have a kernel that is provided and built by the security team. Of course you can compile your own kernel, a package like "kernel-package" makes things very easy you. But we're talking about a distrubution kernel, that's a rather different story! I think it would be a nice extra feature to be able to opt for an initramfs-less kernel. As an **extra** option. Not a replacement. If you choose that option you know that there are a set of restrictions and if you don't want that or if you have special hardware you should opt for the "normal" initramfs version.
