Perhaps lower hanging fruit would be for those that regularly tweak /etc to occasionally send in sanitized diffs against the originals with comments as to why the changes were made. Changes that appear for many people probably should eventually go into the FAQ. (Sorry, I don't have any tweaks... 4.7 required no tweaks outside of turning on IP forwarding in /etc/sysctl.conf...)
