Instead of shipping with it off, could it be shipped with it disabled? 
I.e. instead of making it so you have to edit a file to enable it,
perhaps fetchmail coud check for the existance of a file first?  For
instance /etc/fetchmailrc or somthing like that?

That way it is effectively off, but doesn't require the user to edit a
conffile.

Just a thought.
