Interesting thoughts. In last 6 days we got 24 questions about Hibernate and around 30-40 spam messages. That's why I think it's good to have that option enabled, otherwise the forum will not look professional at all.
Once a user has been accepted, any new post will propagate automatically. So it's just a one time thing for every user of this forum.
