If you use a standard configuration, you can use a precompiled kernel as well.
Sorry I don't buy this. The point of the kernel configuration is to also allow non-standard configurations. Think about it: the standard pc (PC99 or whatever it is called this year) doesn't have a PS/2 port, only USB. So we can remove even the question from the config system, no?
