I was thinking more towards maxim/dictum:
"Never break userspace!" or "It worked before but now it is not."

Think of automated kernel build and test setups based on Debian.

Debian/testing AMD64 has...

[ /etc/login.defs ]

# *REQUIRED*  The default PATH settings, for superuser and normal users.
#
# (they are minimal, add the rest in the shell startup files)
ENV_SUPATH
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
ENV_PATH        PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games

IMHO users should not need to fix their environment.
( The discussion is a bit obsolete as we now have a fix. )
