   Debian is planning to use COAS to do this. See http://www.coas.org/ .
   Essentially, configuration could be done ahead-of-time, and the packages
   would read the configuration data from COAS at install time and install
   non-interactively.

Coorect me if I am wrong but the X based tools of COAS use Qt and I
thought Qt was taboo for Debian.  Unless than Debian restrict itslef
to the curses based part.
