Not to mention that Facebook at present is automatically assuming that I want to be left alone. Spam has never been a problem for me and there isn't enough spam in my Other folder to justify it for me. On the other hand, it took me months to find extremely legitimate messages. I am sure that even when they roll out this feature, they will give you an option to turn it off just as users right now can remove the Message Me button from non-friends entirely.
