That would be sweet. For system-level files I want to overwrite and keep a
known state, but at the user level I would love to be able to push a default
and then let them customize. You can get something similar with concat by

- install firebird sql server
- replace the 'security' file with a known file
- restart the firebird service
I'm not going to include firebird::install class because the part that worries
