+* keep an origin branch with the files debian ships
+  
+  Not sure quite how to do this yet, it seems it would need to clone
+  the repo, switch to origin, and commit, then push back to /etc,
+  and either merge origin or commit a second time.
+  And do this after apt runs only, of course.
+
+  Alternatively, commit in /etc, then clone the repo, switch to origin, and
+  cherry pick the commit into origin?
+
+  Of coure, unless etckeeper is installed by debootstrap or thereabouts,
+  you won't have a true pristine origin branch.
+
+  etcgit manages this, maybe steal its method?

+
+* split the repo
+
+  One way to split it would be to put private (non-world-readable) files
+  in one repo, and public in another. This would need either symlink
+  farming or git "fake bare" repos, both of which are not pleasant, yet.
+
+  Another way would be to allow splitting out subdirs into their own repos.
+  This is already doable, would just need modifying the pre-install and
+  post-instlal stuff (ie, it needs to commit in the subdirs too). Using mr
+  would be a possibility..
