That is what I meant with "pre-packaged configurations."

For example, Apache (if installed) could be pointed at a small http root
+ conf file and then we could try pulling a single page from it.

BSC used to do this for IPaddr only (which is sort-of a pre-packaged
configuration).

It's not hard to do, it's just work ;-)
