Yes, you would lose RB_ASKNAME functionality this way, this was already
   mentioned in the original discussion. If many people rely on this
   functionality (I'm not sure many people do, besides some developers),


i have used this functionality in sunos4 and solaris for about
as many years as i've been using netbsd.  i'd be sorely annoyed
if it was removed from netbsd -- it is far more useful than for
just developers.  system administrators use it too.
