Yup.  I am hoping that there are no folks who think that forcing
this filtering on everybody is so important that it must not go in
unless it is enabled by default.

I however wonder if we need two different levels defaults, depending
on where the user is going, to make it less painful to configure
things.  I would imagine the remotes one would interact with fall
into two quite different categories.

 - The ones that you talk with every day, essential in your work,
   would be something you would have to be able to trust and if
   these trusted people want to give you a bit more colorful output
   from their hooks, you shouldn't have to manually configure "I
   accept colors from them", for example.

 - There are others that you will visit for the first time as you
   try to discover new good things.  These you may want to be extra
   cautious about than the familiar remotes in your everyday work.

Perhaps "git clone $URL" should filter the terminal output by
default, but once inside the resulting repository, "git push" and
"git pull" from the established remote that is used by default when
you do not say whom to talk to, our default can be more lenient, or
something?
