Depending on your level or paranoia, yes. Personally, I think root being
able to log in remotely is always a bad idea, if for no other rason,
than because you then can't say who actually did what from the logs.
Forcing users to either sudo or (G-d forbid) su to root at least tells
you who did what, within a reasonable degree of certainty.
