It is an issue, but no reason for weeping or gnashing of teeth

It seems to me that dust on the sensor is natural and unavoidable with a DSLR. Any time you have a mirror box that's exposed to outside air, it's going to get dust. Zoom lenses act like bellows, pumping air in and out, so you don't even need to take the lens off to get dust.
This is all true, and I fully agree that if you get into the DSLR game you must learn to clean your sensor, or routinely have it cleaned by someone else. However, the D600 is particularly bad at this. Within 80 actuations, I had significant dust accumulation that was biased toward the upper left corner of the sensor. My 2nd D600 behaved similarly. Fortunately for me, a blower takes care of 95% of the problem, though I did end up doing a wet cleaning on one of my D600 bodies.
I feel for people that are having more severe problems. I scratch my head with those that wait until 2,000+ actuations before they even think about cleaning the sensor, then show us the horror story spot shot. I do think we should all complain to Nikon via their support channels so that they know their customers are disturbed by this. I also think we should relax, go out, and do some photography, putting some useful actuations on our cameras, then doing a clean, after which the problem should substantially diminish to more manageable levels.
