Combining all of these into one script seems like a fine idea, but I 
think it would make sense to make it optional which component(s) it is 
configuring the database for.

I also considered whether such a script belonged upstream or not.  Right 
now it's doing some Fedora specific stuff though, like offering to 
install mysql-server for you if it's not already installed.  It could 
eventually be made more generic, but that takes time and effort.  :-)
