with that banner.

You know, this is another instance where I find Gmail stupid.  If I'm taking
the time to filter a message, let's assume it's *not* spam.  That box should
always be checked.  If I want to uncheck it, that's fine, but the default
should be with it on.

If you’re filtering by sender, and it’s a very well-known sender (e.g., “from:@facebook.com”), turning off the spam filter by default would be disasterous because of the sheer volume of spoof mail.
