That does sound correct, and I'd agree that there are many situations
where guest access is a Bad Idea.
But it's still a documented (and presumably supported?) Samba
configuration that has worked in the past - if that's changing then it
should be made explicit.
For myself, it's something I can work around without much fuss, but I'm
just concerned that I've stumbled upon a regression.
