Comment (by npetetin):

 The only thing this plugin does is hiding it by default, am I right? It
 still may be displayed by checking the screen option with the exact same
 hard-coded content. So it doesn't fix the issue at all, it's just hiding
 it behind an option.

 What's definitely required is the same level of customization by plugins
 as the dashboard had reached until now. Without it, it's just a 3 year
 step back.

 WP has reached a high level of maturity, especially since version 3. It
 has attracted a large amount of business projects and many professional
 solutions now rely on it. So when such new features are added, please give
 them the same level of maturity. It's the exact same issue with the new
 about page by the way...
