Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 @VoxPelli: Yawn. Make yourself useful and offer a better patch instead of
 ranting on your blog:

 to-a-halt/

 Plus, it's trivial to override in a plugin:

 {{{
 if ( wp_next_scheduled('do_generic_ping') ) {
   wp_clear_scheduled_hook('do_generic_ping');
   do_action('do_generic_ping');
 }
 }}}

 By comparing the return value of wp_next_scheduled() you could even
 throttle it differently to suit whichever behavior makes the most sense to
 you -- instant, after a minute, after a half hour, whatever.
