I don't believe that either of these actions are delivered via GPO templates. It is, however, possible to add your own settings to the templates (requires knowing what the settings would be and what registry keys affect them).
There is one HUGE downside to doing this, however. This type of setting is applied directly to the reegistry - not to the 'purged' key sets that are created for GPO. IOW, this reverts to a NT 4.0 policy like behavior in which the registry is permanently changed - unless you go back and more or less manually change it. If you want more info on how to do this (generically - I'm not going to hunt down the keys to solve this one issue) I can provide guidance on how to create entries to the ADM files to create these 'tatoos' of the registry.
