I think the latter is important, especially on servers that have audio but no window manager. All too often the response to an intelligently set system-bell is "I hate the system bell! How do I turn it off?!?!?" That isn't the point. There are people (myself included) who need a non-obnoxious system-bell to notify them of activity outside their focus.
