The more I think about it, the more I like Jörg's uid != 0 patch.

Other platforms implement their own login controls for root (eg /etc/securetty 
or /etc/default/login) and sshd ignores them in favour of its own mechanism 
(PermitRootLogin).

I'm in favour of the patch.  If required, you can still disable root logins via 
ssh by setting "PermitRootLogin no".  What's the argument against it?
