No problem. Regardless of which entropy source is a user's preferred method, libbitcoin's stance has generally been to never use system generated random values for anything related to storing coins, which is why the model chosen is to allow a user to provide their own entropy. If someone believes /dev/urandom is "good enough", they can pass in generated values on the command line. Others may believe that dice rolls are "good enough", so those can be passed in too. In other words, regardless of what I think about the GNU/Linux sources of randomness, libbitcoin doesn't necessarily prefer either where it matters.
