ssh None cipher

Whilst trying to replicate data from my FreeNAS to my FreeBSD home theater
PC on my local LAN, I came across this bug preventing use of the None
cipher:
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=163127

I think I could enable the None cipher by recompiling base with a flag in
/etc/src.conf.

Is there any harm in enabling this by default, but having the None cipher
remain disabled in /etc/ssh/sshd_config? That way people wouldn't have it
on my default, but wouldn't have to recompile to enable it.

Thoughts?
