Hear, hear. I for one have disabled it on all of the blogs I use and/or
maintain because it has given me nothing but headaches. Then, coming from
the perspective of a blogging network that has had a number of server
issues, once you get into moving directories and/or servers it causes more
than the average amount of heartburn.
