Let's avoid submitting -1 or +1 on things that haven't even been proposed.
Thats just going to attract more mindless votes and discussion and lead the
conversation to nowhereland. You are the first person to mention *requiring*
a DBA password.
Later in this post you approve of optionally letting the installer create a
DB. Would be more productive to start the post with this opinion. Why start
so negative? I think this is just the urge to debate, but IMO is not so
helpful on a 1000 person mailing list such as this.
I will mellow out now.
