Agreed with Matt. I wasn't involved in the discussions referenced, I think,
but my opinion is that you cannot simply give people a boolean option on
this kind of thing. "firehose of sewage or nothing" means a lot of people
are going to go for "nothing", at which point we've sort of undermined the
entire system.

From where I'm standing, I think there should be sane defaults, but each

If not, you risk people turning everything off, or worse, using the wiki
less.
