eatmydata by default

Heyho!
I've been looking a bit into eatmydata.
I feel that eatmydata is useful enough that it can be enabled by default,
given that the chroots created by pbuilder are usually destroyed.
The way I would implement it:
* add eatmydata to the packages to be installed in the chroot
* use eatmydata when creating the chroot in the first place, if it is
installed
* define --no-eatmydata if somebody has eatmydata installed but doesn't
want to use it. (This would do both: not install eatmydata on the chroot
creation and not use it wherever it would otherwise be used.)
* add code doing something like CHROOTEXEC="$CHROOTEXEC eatmydata " (after
checking that the target actually contains CHROOTEXEC.)
Makes sense?
cheers
