This was actually what make me start doing it the Debian Way. Using module-
assistant, it is only necessary to reinstall the driver when you upgrade your 
kernel. Installing with module-assistant is as simple as

$ m-a update && m-a a-i nvidia

IMO this is no more work than running some script, and it also doesn't require 
you to navigate to nvidia's website in order to download the latest version.
