NixOS 19.03 feature freeze

I’m looking for feedback on better support for logrotate in 19.03.

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/54529

I’d like to create logrotate rules by default for enabled services like apache, etc… like other distros do, or at bare minimum document the need to rotate logs.
Users coming from Debian can be surprised to find out their logs continue to grow indefinitely instead of being rotated automatically like they are on Debian.

I’m willing to do the work on this, but would like to hear any opinions that people have before I start.
