I mention the gifs modules during development of the image but rod was reluctant to include them.
The ssh thing is a bit weird I thought rod included that, I was working in tandem with rod when the image was being developed, we differed on what should be included in the image.
As for vnc, this is the first time this issue has arisen, so ATM it seems to be a one off.
The only alternative to enable/disable hardware is to edit the config.txt by hand.
I don’t think you’ll get a lot of movement until a newer version is released.
But one thing you could do is mentioned these things on the github page, as that where the devs are, or make a pull request with the info you think should be included in the docs.
Remember projects like this only move forward by users putting in the effort.
Another thing to do is raise an issue on rods github for the image builder, the link is somewhere in the thread, and mention these items.

All of your issues are for programs I never use. ssh maybe should be included.
I thought somebody got tigervnc working the other day.
I did not want to add any bloat on such a small SBC
I would not dream of installing any OS without a keyboard to start with
There are some notes on the linuxcnc download page

Oh come on who was this image for ? You or the community ?
ssh is pretty common utility not just for remote login but transferring files from one machine to another.
gvfs makes samba mounts effortless via the file manager, even The Debian installer now includes it as default, on a compressed image it takes up bugger all, and when uncompressed it takes up bugger all as well. Adding those two is really of no consequence to the size of the image. And from what I’ve seen it adds nothing to latency.
I agree with you regarding the keyboard thing but your reply “All of your issues are for programs I never use” is just bad form. Even a graphic network manager would make life easier for new users.
