I understand, the reason I'm not using the provided scripts is because I'd

could rewrite them, but it's easier to maintain if it is included.

Exactly, I guess the infrastructure should have a possibility to have
them both mutual exclusive. Maybe food for thought in a RH bugzilla entry ?

Yes, that's a good idea. If --nice 5 is a good default, why isn't it
implied ?
The next release will have the mentioned recommendations. Thank you very
much.
