In my case, it's mainly a desire to keep the list of commands
focussed. I have no particular interest in Launchpad, and don't expect
to use it, so disabling it by default suits me. (I also have a slight
dislike of the way Launchpad gets "preferred" status by being built in
- but that's not the major issue).

Personally, I'd have preferred the implementation to be by means of a
setting in bazaar.conf, or similar - I've no particular wish to delete
the plugin (in case I need it at some point), I'd rather just disable
it. But that's a minor detail.
