Some of the proposed ways to implement the minimum distro kernel would not allow you to override the distro defaults because they would be implemented by setting dependancies, not by selecting options that you as the user could then unselect.
The sanest thing to do is just a list of "select" statements. And in any case it would have to depend on the "distro config" entry, so EVEN THEN you could just create the Kconfig file, then edit out the distro config thing, and then do whatever you want.
Except that "select" is one of the ugliest things in Kconfig, as it blindly sets a symbol without checking if its dependencies are fulfilled.
