Comment (by iamfriendly):

 With the greatest amount of respect, I disagree. I've already outlined my
 reasons as to why I think this should be adjusted in core.

 It's a potential snag that people may come across and find they can do
 nothing about. If they discover this problem, it's too late to install a
 plugin. If they are thinking about this issue with forethought (and
 therefore install the plugin immediately), then they'll simply make a
 manual robots.txt file. This adjustment isn't for those folks who know
 about how to do that, it's for the general public.

 I'll go ahead and write a plugin and make a patch.
