There's one thing I'd like to see in dselect though: let it mutate from just a package manager to a full-scale installer system suitable for system cloning:
If you have a system that needs cloned, you might want to check Morphix. It's a system for creating Knoppix-style CD distros, but it might be a good way to make specific-purpose machines in quantity.
For system cloning, or creating a Linux restore cd, i've been using mondorescue for some time now, created restore cds with it and actually restored some systems from it. I also cloned several IBM xSeries using mondo restore. Think of it as a Norton Ghose equiv of Linux ;-).
