I may think of a mechanism to do a “post-registrationscripts” setup that works similarly to post-download script. However, part of the registration system does not require storage information which is really what’s needed to do this properly.
Your mechanism of updating an init for yourself would work, but it does make keeping up with changes in the init’s a little more difficult, though I don’t imagine much of the changes affecting the way your init would work.
I have a script that allows me to customize init’s on the fly in the case my build system is just taking too long.

Of course you’re more than welcome to editing it.
