Yeah, it's a nuisance in most installations, but the idea is to be compliant with some <abbreviation_that_I'm_sure_Tim_can_remember> security standard. Give me a 7.1 doc site (if it exists) and I'll find the details. I failed to find 7.1 doc on Google searches. Probably too much beer.

They were put there in 7.1 in order to comply with some security standard. And their purpose is exactly to prevent a dba from logging in without being monitored. It's in the 7.1 new features manual, as far as I remember.  That's also the version where it was suddenly not possible for the poor deveopers to see their own tracefiles, except if they set _trace_files_public=true.
