I agree. Most of this shouldn't necessary, though, since it should be
done from a post-install script in VMBuilder. In that case, there's no
clutter in auth.log from sudo, there's no bash history to clean up,
apt-get clean (which I think I embarrassingly forgot this time around)
is done by VMBuilder, and no mysql history to clean out either.

I did not mount any swap space, so that was easy.
