Whoa. That's the sort of thing that shouldn't be dealt with at pkg install time (except for user accounts created at image install time). If you're installing an LDAP server, or whatever, where a password will be required in order to run the service, then install the pkg's services disabled by default and tell the user what configuration program to run in order to enable them. (Does this mean I'm coming around to Shawn's/Bart's views? Maybe. I'm hoping that the things that will need to run things post-pkg install will be few enough and far between that the point will be moot.)
