I think it should be pointed out that such a change would allow  
tickets to start being issued where currently they would not when the  
KDC software gets updated -- even if the latter really was the intent  
of the realm administrator.  Because of that, we might instead want to  
create a new flag with the semantics Jeff wants, and leave the  
existing flag with its current (suboptimal) behavior.
