Comment (by docwhat):

 I have added a patch to bug #5065 and added a new bug #5085 for the
 various generator strings.

 The patch in bug #5065 would allow exactly as arnee suggests: turning off
 the user-agent via a plugin.

 Bug #5085 is a little more complicated to make it plugin-patchable.

 Ciao!
