 > 1. shipping with a default favicon in wp-includes/images/ seems like a
 no brainer, and updating the bundled themes to use it.
 ''wp-includes/images/'' won't help for ''/favicon.ico'' requests.

 > 2. Triggering a warning in the admin if 404 is served for '/favicon.ico'
 sounds elegant to me. Though maybe should take a step back and look for
 generalized solutions.
 So what for? Then just put a favicon.ico into the wordpress zip and go for
 it. I suggest to use a very reduced version (for example 1bit colors) as
 favicon.ico so that a site owner is aware of the possibilities.
