what new 2008 AD features may I want to consider for this?

I will have a handful of sites geographically spread out across the globe... this active directory deployment is only to support a deployment system, which is using WDS and DFS-R, both of which require active directory. There is really only a couple of user accounts that will be used (by many users though, more like a role). There is a 'central' server where all edits to anything will be done from (like the share that is replicated via DFS-R), each other location will have a deployment server with a replica of this file share (each server will also be running DHCP/WDS to support deployment on it's subnet).
Right now I'm trying to figure out if I should make each of these other deployment servers member servers or additional domain controllers? One thing that comes to mind is avoiding user authentication over the WAN... I assume there are other considerations as well... is this a good scenario for the new Read-Only Domain Controller?
any input would be appreciated, thanks.
