[Bug 586546] Re: Byobu should be enabled by default for initial login to Ubuntu Server

So, after the heated debate at UDS, I turned byobu on for a couple of my
own personal servers (1 Karmic , 2 CentOS).

I have turned it off on one of those machines since, but rather enjoy it
for the other two. The main reason is that I ssh into that box 2 or 3
times a day from different places, and I don't necessarily want to see
what I saw. I just want a shell prompt to run something on. byobu gets
in the way of that.

I think this is a case of what kind of car should Ubuntu Server be?

Are we trying to produce the feature rich ultra comfortable 7 series
luxury sedan, or the spartan, agile, powerful M3 sport coupe?

People can always add speakers and a nav computer to the M3, but you
can't rip all the stuff out of the 7 series. So I actually think we
should strive for a lean, powerful machine, and leave byobu just the way
it is.
