No, it's a case of read the manual we wish we had time to write.

Right now, with the number of contributors we've got, this could be disastrous :}. Also, you don't _need_ a custom distribution with the next release of setup. You can just merge in a 2nd setup.ini that causes the changes you want, and adds any needed packages.
