If you only install Vista once every 2 years, its nothing to make a fuss about. If you are a system builder who has to do it several times a day then it is something to make a fuss about.
At the end of the day its a big step backwards and not really (IMO) necessary. The system worked just as well before. You can run the WGA authentication direct from the installer so you can verify the original copy is legit. The cynic in me says they are doing it to force people to buy full licenses instead of upgrade ones... Unless they exempt any special licenses from it.
