These were answered, I believe.

No, at this time those do not exist. That's deliberate. In many (most)  
cases,
Jumpstart finish scripts exist to work around gaps in the feature set or
implementation. We want to understand what the real requirements are
and build those into the product.

The generic solution is to have a package that uses an SMF first-boot  
property
to make changes like this. Alternatively, you can use the Distribution  
Constructor
to create a custom image.

Please let me know if you have questions or need more information.
