We discussed that in the Fedora Server Edition Working Group and opted to leave it as is for the Server installation iso. A lot of servers are running in a protected environment. And there are situations when you need urgent access but do not sit at your desktop and don’t have the key available. So let the server admin decide what is best in a given installation context. In most cases it is the current default (disallow password login)
