-1 for this.

Things should be as default-as-possible, so that the behaviour of
/bin/sh as root on FreeBSD is unsuprising to someone used to /bin/sh
on other systems or users, because they won't be used to the magic
config.

I have no problem with a section of root's .profile having the
approprate magic commented out so that folk who want this can easily
have it, of course.

Cheers,
Mike
