Sorry, I missed this question over the holidays. Yes, what I meant is
that everyone should really want this feature on, because it gives
strictly more information and lets the client be smarter.
But if it defaults to "off", server operators may well not bother to
turn it on (or even know it exists). And the clients who would benefit
may have trouble convincing server operators to do so.
So I would strongly prefer it default to "on", and the onus be on server
operators with non-atomic clusters, etc, to turn it off when deploying
in their environments.
