Well, first, those parts are already there and publicly exposed
(xmlui, jspui, oai, rest, rdf), so the right thing to do is to make
them resilient against attacks, not to pretend they're not exposed.
Second, there must be an option for the administrator not to expose
this information (not all repositories are production and public
installations).

And finally, this is supposed to actually help security. You'll be
able to register your instance (just once) along with your email
address and then get a custom-tailored notification that your
particular installation is affected by a security bug because you're
using version X.Y with module Z.
