Maybe it's obvious that these are "modifications" - but I think there
might be some room for flexibility here... or not?

For what it is worth, my opinion on this is that such simple changes
should not require that something be labeled a "distro." In fact, I
would suggest that all effort be made to integrate any of these into
Haiku itself. Why wouldn't we ask the user what they would like when
installing? I think the approach used in Ubuntu is good for this
(choose your language, time zone, key map, etc.)
