Our past experience with automatically added repository (nvidia, ati, OSS, non-OSS, updates) is not positive. Our redirector fails for example quite dramatically at every release, preventing the successful addition of repositories and the installation of those packages.
Could you please elaborate what exactly you mean with "our redirector fails ... quite dramatically at every release"? I would be very interested in details.
Moreover there are problems with that: people without network, people with network card not configurable at installation time, and so on.
