And how about losing the "don't login as root, use su" message?  
Obviously there are times you *have* to login as root, and this message
can be a bit confusing for new users.  Also, 'su -l' generates the
message also, which is silly.  Of course it is simple to remove the
message, but should it be there in the first place?
