[meta] Make standard install profile into a "Community in a Box"

webchick asked me to start an issue for deciding what we're going to do with the default install profile, as it is starting to block other issues such as #79582: Add example content to the experimental out-of-the-box demo install profile β†’

I've been wanting to do a "Community in a Box" as the default install profile, and have documented that on a g.d.o. wiki page http://groups.drupal.org/node/21013 (I also have some D6 code for experimentation in a Google Code SVN repo at http://code.google.com/p/drupal-oob/ - I haven't begun on a D7 trial yet, but can switch to focusing on that).

I suggest we either directly edit that g.d.o. wiki page OR have other people create their "alternate vision" for what Drupal's default profile should do out of the box.

Aside #1: not checked in anywhere, but I was very easily able to make a "Photos" component using Features. This feels like the right way to do these kind of bundled components, whether it is Photos, Multi User Blogs, or Forums.

Aside #2: we probably need a new component for issues - default.profile and minimal.profile
