With all the talk about deleting a packaged file or rebuilding a base
package, I'm surprised no one has noticed this solution.  The above is
most likely the best solution. Easy to deploy through CM, won't be
overwritten with package updates, and is the best for "Enterprise"
customers (who deploy to hundreds or thousands of computers).

I'm already using something similar to change the default home page.
