Hmm, I would seriously wonder whether installations that use the default
configuration and don't change/manage it will be the best source of data
about customized configuration. (Or anything, really.)

Is it really that useful to get a bunch of stats about packages that were
installed perhaps only to meet some prerequisite for another package?
