One nice "feature" to have in pkg for pkgbase would be a way to ask pkg to 
restore
a stock configuration file (perhaps with an option to restore it to an alternate
directory or filename?)  This would imply that packages would need to keep the
"pristine" conf files around somewhere.  This would also let you do 'pkg 
confdiff'
or the like (as a replacement for 'etcupdate diff')
