 * Is it a good idea including this with wordpress? seems a bit of a security issue.

 * How would that be a security issue? Unless you mean security through obscurity,
   which isn’t really security at all.

 * I think it’s a wonderful idea to include it. That way, if someone needs help 
   with somthing, the support person will not have to go through the trouble of 
   explaining how to create the phpinfo file and upload it. They can help people
   faster, since they get to skip a few steps.

 * That’s part of the thinking.
