I would join George in the minority on this one. "Because we can" is a slippery slope, there is value in keeping things simple, having less knobs and bells and whistles.
On this particular whistle, the user could add one line to his MPI code to define send to ssend and be done with it. If he does not have the code in the first place, there is nothing he can't do about it anyway. So, it's just a matter of convenience for a lazy user.
