The only problem is that in an increasing number of countries, removing DRM from a file is a criminal offence. And in the case of the Kindle, you are doing it on a machine which is quite capable of sending back the details to Amazon. Be afraid, be very afraid.

As for the desktop, I suspect that it's not a Mobipocket decision at all, it will have been forced on them by Amazon, perhaps as part of the agreement to use the Mobi format.
