I don't think we know enough about the impact of this feature to make
that decision at this time.  We will have to see how it is accepted by
the users out there first.  It could be deemed by the majority as the
best invention since sliced bread.  Having a variable to disable it is
a good fire escape for now.

It is, just not in the user manual.
