It doesn't mean diminishing the customization potential in any way.
A lot of software doesn't work right out of the box, or has security
issues. We could at least make sure those services don't get enabled by
default, provide warnings and instructions, and perhaps configuration
examples.
None of those would go against our current policies.
That said, if we want to appeal anyone besides hobbyists, we should
consider what the different user profiles expect, and deliver.
