Remove will break existed systems, so need a NEWS entry as Maxim
mentioned, and maybe some explainations and examples in the manual about
how to setup the environments as needed.

I could make a patch for it this weekend if no one beats me..

I think hopefully we can agree that /etc/profile only handle the system
profile, and user's own config can decide what it want.

Despite mitigation, it still work out of the box with skeletons, and
user can arrange priorities among profiles, or disable the system one.
Or configure it via home-shell-profile (TODO: need some changes).
