1) It's in krb5-doc; anyone can install that

2) Really end-users have very little business setting those config
values.  With the exception of some unfortunate bugs with NFS, it more
or less means that the Kerberos admin has screwed up if you find
yourself needing to care about enctypes.  Which of course does happen,
so if it were in krb5-admin-server not krb5-doc I'd agree with your
point.  However, asking people to look on the web or at detailed
documentation for a complex issue seems reasonable to me.
