Most ISP will probably have different servers for the different services and on each 
of them they will start with a secure base install with as few software installed as 
possible and then just install apache/postfix/proftpd whatever they need and customize 
it.

I don't see a big bonus in a special ISP distribution. A better integration of 
iptables firewalls, vlans or traffic shapers would be nice but that's nothing ISP 
specific.

P.S.: pbuilder is a nice tool to build minimal installations that you       can just 
untar onto a new harddisk
