I am not disabling RC4.  I am saying that applications that want to use it 
will, after the post-1.0.2 release is adopted, need to take pro-active action.  
 This follows the current thinking of the IETF. It's just being 
standards-compliant. If you say "security levels are a better way to handle 
this" then why don't security levels require RC4?
