Why is that a bad idea? If a government is paranoid enough, they can just put devices all over which block any crypted traffic.
Some sort of way for an effective seednodes file to be chosen or built quickly, then.

They are useful if they make it more popular. Suppose there is some lag, say, 30 seconds to a minute to get an effective seednodes.ref. On top of that, such a node probably wouldn't be able to have a terribly big cache. Then there's incentive for people to whine for permanent nodes, and it wouldn't be too long before these Public Access Internet Terminals (or whatever hype word they use now) start being preloaded with Freenet.
