Which file needs to be modified to change the "get" function of "rhncfg-client" to require a "--all" flag or something similar? When "rhncfg-client get" is run, it grabs all files in all config channels which in my opinion can be dangerous.

Come now, this is Linux. We design systems to deliberately allow dangerous functionality and when you get bit by our unsafe designs, we laugh and point at you and cluck our tongues at your noob misfortune. /sarc

rhn-actions-control --disable-deploy

is the closest thing but it doesn't stop anything but the SCHEDULED deployment of files which is a different animal. 'rhncfg-client' should be handled with extreme care, much like glicerin and 'rm -fr'.
