This change was done to address the issue where the admin's password was stored in two places (olcRootPW and the entry's userPassword), which occasionally caused confusion if only one of the two was changed.
Makes perfect sense to me.
I'd even avoid setting a rootpw value at all.
How would one then add the initial database? What you suggest is all fine and good if someone has a known good LDIF to start from, a beginner isn't going to and will need to be able to get the error checking that slapadd does not provide.
