5		Enabling xml-rpc by default has drastically affected the volume of DDOS abuse through xml-rpc on wp sites. I understand it is relatively widely used, however, most wp sites (I believe) do not use pingbacks or wp mobile app by default. I believe it should be reverted back to disabled by default and have plugins and remote services that rely on this to enable it either automagically upon install or in their installation instructions.
