Maybe the solution is to a) explicitly use placeholder marks and
b) write the module starter tool in such a way that one can fill
in placeholders after initially creating the module.

That way the distro builder can find the placeholders without
groping for known boilerplate, and the user can either remove the
placeholders manually when editing, call the starter tool again
later as guidance, or just use the its postponed fill-in as part
of his personal modus operandi.
