I agree because it is something that CDCK may need. Same way than WordPress is advertizing itself when installed.

But this is off topic. It has nothing to do with UX what so ever. It is matter of

- layout
- visual component
- advertizing

No users need it and its visibility or hiding doesn’t change how users can or will use a forum.
