I would really like to see the setup program come up with a list of 
default configs.  Something like:
1) Developers Edition - Everything and the kitchen sink.
2) Minimal Install - Just a simple character based package without the 
		source tree. etc.
4) Network Surfers - The Minimal Install w/ X.  Designed for people on a 
		network.  Automagically setting up Netscape & httpd.
5) Custom - Where a list of ALL of the packages are listed and the user 
		can pick and choose which to install.  If they don't know what something 
		is, they should be allowed to press F1 and obtain a help screen telling 
		WHAT this something is and HOW it is useful.

6) Uninstall - The ability to remove any of the above listed packages.  
Since everything would be installed using pkg_add this would be simple
:-).

Just my two cents worth...  I would not mind working on this with someone 
if they would like help.
