I strongly object to this unless you meet Ken's documentation
constraints.
At a minimum, I think that
* user guide
* admin guide
* README
* kadmin man page
need to be updated. And I agree with Ken this is true for the alpha.
If you do this, I think it is reasonable to default to false.
Otherwise, I do not.
