I didn't really feel the need to weigh in on this bikeshed thread previously, but apparently some folks are calling for a revert. Why? I don't really understand how this meets the high bar for summary revert, even if you disagree with the change made (and disagreement is fine, of course).
So I'll raise my hand for "leave it in" and encourage talking out your bikeshed. It would be persuasive to come up with a specific list of complaints, ideally excluding ones that have been shown to be baseless. So far there has been a lot of mudslinging and it's difficult to sort out the preference complaints from the security complaints from the (well-intentioned, but ultimately inaccurate) fiction. I don't think a "heckler's veto" should be granted. If you don't use root/toor, that's fine! But I think that sort of (heavily) discounts how much weight your opinion of root/toor defaults should be given. If you use Expect, great. You should be setting a specific PS1 anyway (both before and after this change). After all, this is just the default. Users have been free to set a custom PS1 for root in .profile since time began. Has anyone verified the claim that freebsd-update will actually modify a user's home directory contents, or was that just speculation? I don't know one way or the other and I think it's still an open question.
