   Good point (I was not sure - I always enable it, since my pis run headless).   
      
   However, I *do* remember news about lots of pis with default passwords being   
   exploited via ssh - but I can't find the sources for that.   
      
   Either way, making it difficult for the admin to mess things up is not a bad   
   idea.
