Yes, only one please.

Maybe we should have the different evaluation scripts in a generic way
similar to ctdb event scripts, so one .py file for each task.
where an admin could use something like 'touch
/path/to/python/samba/gpoupdate/scripts/machine/50.kdc_policy.py.disabled'
in order to
disable the evaluation of that policy.

I think it should also be on by default on an AD DC.
