 > How about having something that's built into core but, just like a lot
 of other things, is just an available option?

 Aside from the raw benefits or drawbacks of the ability to move wp-
 login.php (which I find are limited and plentiful, respectively), adding
 an option would go against most of our philosophies outlined at
 http://wordpress.org/about/philosophy/, including "decisions, not
 options," "striving for simplicity", and "design for the majority".
