I do not agree. Backward compatibility is really important for software
like HAProxy. So if you start disabling this feature, it would lead to tons
of bug reports.
Moreover, I do not agree that disabling Sslv3 is absolutely necessary.
There are still plenty of websites around that must keep support for
WinXP+IE6. Even Google did not deactivate sslv3 on their server (they are
using a mitigating solution instead).

In my own opinion, being able to deactivate it on defaults section might
help, but don't change default behaviour.
