As an alternative to doing all this work to create a Debian-Lite/personal
edition would be to have the guys working on the new dselect (sorry, I can't
remember the name) to have setup scenarios.
I don't see why any of this customized setup can't be done from dselect. Just
tell dselect you want a personal system with X and it will make most of the
major decisions for you.
