I like this idea.  But I think the files should be named anna_include
and anna_exclude to be consistent with the base_include and
base_exclude files already used by base-installer.

The udebs listed in anna_include should be tagged for installation,
and the packages in anna_exclude should be untagged if they where
tagged for installation.

This will of course only work for CD installs.  Is there a way to get
similar behaviour for network installs?

Hm, perhaps 'anna' is a bad prefix for this?  udeb_include and
udeb_exclude might be better names.
