Maybe preinstalled isn't the problem... I know that some of the external repos 
have packaged more of these things, maybe what would essentially scratch 
Robert's itch is a single script that can be run after install which 
autofetches the various license/patent problem packages (direct from 
Sun/Realplayer, for example, thus not treading on toes) and installs them.  
(And does stuff like disable Noatun and Kaboodle... and artsd... sets up 
~/.mplayer/config... sets up Konq MIME stuff for MP3/MPG/AVI etc...)

Did anyone make such a thing yet?
