Re: Intention to dropping the the "Allow SSH root login with password" option from the installer GUI

I normally would complain about taking options away from users, but as I
typically use ssh for root *anyway*, I felt this wasn't appropriate
(although I have a friend who never uses ssh keys, always
password-over-ssh).

I would, however, ask that the config file have a commented out option
that re-enables it, with a suitable text comment clearly saying
"uncomment this to allow root passwords over ssh".

Perhaps that comment might be a good place to mention ssh-copy-id ?

Such comments make the "best practices" much more discoverable without
frustrating users who just want to make things work.
