No. When important features like HAL or SASL are

various apps in the package are rendered useless. Any app needing
authentication with SASL, for example, which includes the staple app of
KMail, is no longer functional. Likewise with HAL.
Before building something, packager should be aware about all features are
available for package. I do not want to dictate which feature are "important"
and which is not.
I disagree with disabling everything. We as the
upstream providers need to
test everything. The downstream packagers decide what to disable for their
distros or personal usage.

I disabled every feature intentional, because I think this behavious is very
consistent, and packager will don't need to guess which features are OFF and
which are ON.
