Comment (by boonebgorges):

 I agree with DJPaul that it's a good thing to migrate users away from the
 BuddyBar. However, I've always thought (and feedback is bearing out) that
 the current method of migration is quite heavy-handed, especially given
 that users are unlikely to read directions.

 All things being equal, I would prefer Ray's patch, plus a big, scary
 sounding warning along the lines of "Using the WordPress Toolbar is highly
 recommended. The BuddyBar will be deprecated in an upcoming release."
