Please, NO!  This bugged me to no end in Civ I.  Also, it adds a new
'scorched earth' tactic to the game (you can disband small cities that
would be almost free for the enemy to take).  Two changes to the game's
rules with some impact, which is why I'd like to see a server option to
allow users to disable it.

I'd like to have a three-way client 'message option':

  - always disband city for settler
  - never (current behaviour)
  - always ask
