Sure, that's a good idea. Then you could simply do

[tbabej at vm-001 ~]$ sudo ipa-advise fedora-authconfig > script.sh
[tbabej at vm-001 ~]$ scp script.sh vm-002:script.sh
[tbabej at vm-002 ~]$ ./script.sh

I'll include that change in the next revision

Also, adding this to the wiki page for plugin authors as an convention 
wouldn't hurt.

On the second thought, we run the risk of people mindlessly using the 
generated scripts without even looking at them though.
