...and a mighty w00t! goes up from the crowd. This would be wonderful
because it would allow me to have a firewall install script, a webserver,
script, etc. When I go to install a machine, I just pull the correct
script and come back the next morning.

Just to be clear, GLIS already has (kind of) a ncurses interface.
