Bug Description

See Bug #889171 for the history, but basically, the security team prefers this to not ship by default as it's a security sensitive component that most users don't need. Users should be prompted to install it when they need it.

NOTE: this only requires a seed change, but this bug is open for tracking a change to a stable release
