Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: screen-profiles

I think that the current positioning of the MOTD is suboptimal, because of the 
following reasons:
 a) You don't see it directly, but instead you have to switch over to it.
 b) It has its own tab, which takes up space and requires more key presses to 
switch from one tab to another if you have to go over it.
 c) Having it there pushes you to want to look at it and distracts you from 
your workflow.

Therefore, I suggest showing the MOTD above the shell prompt, and having
the shell tab enabled by default (so that you can see the MOTD and start
working right away, without having to switch over to it from the menu
which you usually don't need).
