Yes, of course, essentially because the file systems may be heavy. There
are three options in my opinion :
1) have some distinct optional (recommended?) packages, one per filesystem
2) have a script as you propose
3) have a feature "file-system installations" integrated in marionnet
I don't have a preference, but at least one method should be provided to
the user. If you are willing, the point 2) could be also a good starting
point for 3).
