Really the way to do this kind of thing is to have your own custom distro 
config. If you're doing anything beyond the basics you should probably have one 
anyway. Generally this kind of thing is usually about how you are using the 
machine as opposed to supporting the machine itself, so it's more of a distro 
policy type situation.

Cheers,
Paul
