Putting a value in history that the user has never put in themselves 
means overloading the term "history".

I'm not that strongly opposed to this approach as long as root will be 
the default, but the C-u/C-uC-u approach looks a lot more appealing, and 
it'll save a keystroke.

Also, C-u and M-n are more or less equally easy to press.
