I think we've only seen a couple of such reports so far .... given that the exec bit was never enforced before now it wouldn't be surprising if there are lots of buggy apps out there but we don't seem to be seeing them yet.
Perhaps for NX capable systems it could be an appdefault? The security enhancement it gives would be nice to have at least as an option for power users (yeah yeah I know, another pref ...)
