I've changed /etc/security in -current by adding switches to the
scripts command line and making those switches configurable in
/etc/periodic.conf.
If you want to take this further, I would think it best to keep it
controllable from periodic.conf - but feel free to argue about
specifics :-)
I wouldn't mind if you wanted to pass any patches by me.
