Everybody keeps repeating this like a mantra, but it's ignoring the fact
that somewhere you have to have a default policy.

How about this.  If they use the "Simple" (or whatever it's called) option
in sysinstall, then they are presented with a

    [X] Enable telnet

option at some point in the install process.

If they use the other two install options, they get a 

    [ ] Enable telnet

option instead.

I'll even provide the code if it'll shut people up.
