component customization

Components that have customizable settings need a manual configuration in
every new image. Have anybody a solution for saving customized standard
components to avoid manual setting?
Example are "Autologon" "Regional and language options" components.
Until now I make a customized image and reuse it by changing only the
hardware components, but this way needs working on the full expanded image.
Adding components from scrath seems to me a better solution, because macros
could be used to automate operations.
