So write one :-) I'm sure that if you wrote the things you do and submitted it for comment you could end up with a relatively complete document. Probably wouldn't be a substitute for reading a few of the recommended books but it might be somewhere to start.

I like the FreeBSD distributions - but I would be much happier if there was an easy way to make a system more secure. For instance a document which told you:
- These files are only necessary if you need functionality X (uucp is an example here). If you don't need functionality X, they can be safely removed.
[...]
i would be VERY happy if such a document was released and was reasonably complete. setting up a new unix machine takes me at least a week of futzing around with security-related issues before i'm satisfied it's ready to be used with some assurance it's not going to be easily broken. having such a document as an additional information source would be awesome.
