Locales
Not that disk space is much of a premium any more, but one thing that bothers me is when software insists on installing translations for every locale.  When I used gentoo, I frequently had to run localepurge after doing an installation so it would clean up the languages that I don't speak.  Many installers, regardless of platform, just go ahead and fill up your hard drive with language packs.  I don't know why they don't have a install-time option to pick in the first place.
