Dangerous - not all defaults are 'y'.
sure, but it's at least as safe as newlines.txt
His goal was to get the defaults - newlines.txt will do that. Your option may turn very undesirable options - saying 'y' to "experimental" is not always the best way.
I am on record as forcing the buildrom developer to generate and maintain a complete configuration file - I think it supports more reproducible builds and eliminates doubt and confusion. That I said, I understand what Myles is trying to do, and it really should be a feature that kconfig offers.
