There are no currently-open bugs on this (unless I overlooked one), but
there's several closed-wontfix ones, starting with bug #22930 (against Red
Hat Linux 7.1) and then #89216 (alias DisallowRoot) up through the other
week's logwatch suggestion.

I'm inclined to reopen #89216 with this suggestion, since it has the fancy
alias and since it's filed against devel already. Yeah?
