It could be possible to do all this by using package manager's like apt or pacman. Create a package that depends on the software that is allready available from the debian repository and provides all the missing software. I think pacman in Arch linux could handle the same by using package groups.
In distributions like Debian and Arch you can install only what you want and configure it by yourself or use some predefined package group and configuration. Installing desktop environment like gnome, kde and xfce is a good example of this. In Arch for example I could install only the parts of XFCE that I need and configure it afterwards like I first did. The next time I installed XFCE in arch I just installed xfce4 and xfce4-goodies groups and everything was ready. It would probably be much less work to maintain and keep up to date this kind of package than to maintain the whole distribution.
