Of course, we could place it in some blatantly obvious way into a default 
configuration, together with a big fat message what it does and how to quickly 
disable it. 

We'd get better coverage in an opt-out system than in an opt-in system.

(First idea- package is pulled in by a default-on useflag and installs itself 
into cron.daily. BEFORE it runs the first time it outputs said message and asks 
for permission to proceed (which cannot be done in the cron job obviously but 
we'd find a way).)
