Going over items from the list, I think that two things that would be
useful to add would be a
system-clamav-config [which would basically ask when you want to run
the clam updates and put that in the crontab.]. Would it be useful to
put something in the crontab that randomizes the time of the update
like this untested syntax?

0 0 * * * perl -le 'sleep rand 14400;' && {/usr/bin/freshclam --quiet
&& { test -x /usr/sbin/clamav-notify-servers && exec
/usr/sbin/clamav-notify-servers || :; }}
