Well, it's quite easy to make a specific configuration by using a
specific lxsession session.

You can look at
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-default-settings/trunk/files
to see how we make sessions on Lubuntu. For example,
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-default-settings/trunk/view/head:/etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu-Netbook/desktop.conf
is the configuration for the Netbook session (a netbook optimized
session for Lubuntu).

You don't really need a script for this, a simple package which
install the configuration files, and the depends on your additional
applications, and it should work.

I can try to make an example this week-end, so people can make their
own session if they want based on this example.
