New description:

 Quite a bit has changed since we introduced off-by-default for XML-RPC.
 Their code has improved, and it is no longer considered a second-class
 citizen when it comes to API development, thanks to the work of a large
 team of awesome contributors. Security is no greater a concern than the
 rest of core.

 There is no longer a compelling reason to disable this by default. It's
 time we should remove the option entirely.
