deprecation of the DH key exchange by using this option:

You can add this option to /etc/ssh/ssh.conf or ~/.ssh/config too.

Can this at least be added (commented out, if you really want to enforce this policy on users out-of-the-box) to the former file in FreeBSD itself? And a note added to UPDATING?

Otherwise, it's almost as though those behind the change are assuming that users will just know exactly what to do in their operational situation. That's a good way to cause problems for folk using FreeBSD in IT operations.

(systemd epitomises this kind of foot shooting.)

I understand already - you want to deprecate a set of key exchanges, and believe in setting an example - but the rest of the world might not be ready for that just yet.
