Comment (by Viper007Bond):

 Yeah, I've always wondered that myself. This would save the theme author
 trouble and ensures that it's added by default to all blogs/themes and
 correctly at that.

 It'd also be a ''lot'' easier for users to remove that from their header
 (for whatever reason they deem) as you could just use a mini-plugin to
 remove the hook rather than editing the theme.

 I do foresee complaints now though from those who don't want that tag in
 their header, but as said, a simple plugin would handle it.
