I second this, it would be nice to be able to portably modify some of these defaults, instead of monkey patching.

you dont have that in Chef. Puppet has this global default thing. You can monkey patch , but i cant think of a clean solution straight away. It would be nice to have this feature though!

Resources have 'retries' and 'retry_delay' attributes.

Seems I have to set these explicitly as part *every* package declaration?
