I don't agree that this is not a bug; as Michael pointed out there are
log file processors like fail2ban which can't tell the difference
between an auth failure from this and an auth failure from a guess.

It could possibly be worked around in the logging daemon or in every
package that consumes the logs, but wouldn't it make more sense to just
be able to not log it in the first place unless all available auth
modules fail?
