I'll say it's critical to a user-friendly GNOME installation.  Without
FAM, you will need to restart gnome-panel each time you install new
software, the GTK+ file chooser doesn't update dynamically nor does
Nautilus (or anything related to the file system).  I can't imagine
actually using a GNOME installation without FAM.

I think a commented out entry in /etc/inetd.conf would be good.  I think
teaching the devel/fam port to create an active entry in inetd.conf to
be better.
