For similar reasons, I would like to ask for including the
option INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE by default in GENERIC. It only
requires about 10 KB of space, but it can be extremely
helful. I've quite often seen people asking how to recover
their kernel configuration (e.g. lost during an update).
INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE would have saved their day ...

Seconded. Was about to propose that myself.

All (about 100) FreeBSD machines I manage have a custom kernel with
this option always added. So please add my Yeah vote to the list.
