Perhaps it's worth revisting the GENERIC issue from another direction.
What if FreeBSD shipped with two pre-built kernels, one with
most of the options (LKM, BPF, etc) turned on by default and
the other reasonable locked down (ie SECURE). 

Seems to me that most people fall within one camp or the other.
This would allow people to choose which 'version' they prefer without
having to recompile an entire new kernel.
