disable privilege dropping for rsh/ssh method by default

ssh expects various configuration bits to be usable like known hosts,
possibly keys and co. Setting this up needs some user work for probably
not a whole lot of benefits, so instead of forcing it upon users on
upgrade disable dropping for it by default.
