I'd disagree.  In a production app, I don't want scratchpad or 
deprecated.  And because extra components can have performance 
implications, I want only the components I'll use.  (and I do this my 
self now with a pair of local.xxx.properties)

Agreed.

Agreed (from the webapp)

Ok.

Includes and excludes of what?  If blocks, it doesn't get any easier (at 
the moment) than editing a local.blocks.properties.  If the things we 
just discussed above, this already exists in the first 10 lines or so of 
[local.]build.properties.

This is exactly why I asked.  I'll be surprised if people can agree on 
this.  I think there may be an illusion of common requirements which on 
closer examination will turn out to have mutually exclusive conflicts. 
If not, I think this can be done easily in very little time.

Please, before weighing in, look over build.properties and 
blocks.properties, along with 
http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=BuildProperties, INSTALL.txt and
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/installing/index.html#Building+Cocoon
