Hi,
IMHO, the randconfig option make no sense sometimes. For me, My
computer need some must-have config options, like SATA and USB
keyboard config options. I think many other people maybe have similar
problems.
So, what about improve the randconfig? let's add some basic options ,
like oldconfig. We can use randconfig based user-defined options,
randing except the pre-defined ones.
What's your opinons?

kconfig has support for reading a file specified by by
$KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG or if not specified for randconfig to read
a file named allrandom.config.
The syntax of the files are the same as in .config.
How far is this from what you try to achieve?
