I agree - I think many less experienced users may not be aware of the inetd
switch in rc.conf, and yet know that to enable a service they have to edit
inetd.conf and hup inetd.  I imagine there will be a few users banging their
head on the console trying to get their smtp/ftp/etc. server running if we
disable inetd in rc.conf.
