I'd vote for on by default. In our installers, the files that aren't vital could still cause problems overall if they weren't present. For example, the help docs aren't vital because the product doesn't need them to work, but it would be very annoying for the user if they can't find them when needed. There are several other files, in several other products, which aren't needed, but result in some form of lost functionality/ability/support if absent.
