I propose deprecating the ftpd currently included in the base system

I had originally planned to try to do this before 13.0, but it dropped
off my list. FTP is not nearly as relevant now as it once was, and it
had a security vulnerability that secteam had to address.
I'm happy to make a port for it if anyone needs it. Comments?
I am on FreeBSD for more than 20 years, running FTP service on almost
all our servers but it never was ftpd from base. I saw other comments
against removing it but from my point of view ftpd in base is useless
for me.
And I don't see much cases where FTP service is needed before any other
package / port can be installed.
As always there will be at least two groups of users one for, one against.
Kind regards
