I Set the required changes in /etc/skel in the template. Every qube created from that template will have the set up and further changes will persist in each qube. Of course, this requires some forethought and planning. Where I want to do the same for *existing* qubes, I salt the change in to each qube using a targeted qubesctl. I dont know if this is better, but it is simple and it works within the existing framework.
