I can think of one item you missed from your list:
Disable IPv6 (disabling it cures cancer!)
OK, but what if I don't need it? You can say that it's harmless etc. But
why the hell then, people recompile the kernel to disable other unused
modules/features? Are they cargo cult sysadmins?
Maybe it's not so bad idea to disable all unused pieces of software in
your system?
IMAO, it all depends on why you're disabling it. Are you doing it
because you don't use it and don't ever expect to (Short-sighted, if you
ask me, but it's your box, not mine.) or are you disabling it to avoid
problems that it either doesn't cause or, at least, hasn't caused in a
long time?
