That sounds like a pretty advanced setup. For a true beginner who wants just the basic shit and can add on all the bells and whistles as he learns, i'm thinking:
Cage
12 bar / round bar (up to preference i guess)
Big rear sprocket
And that is really all you need to start the fun. Even the 12 bar/rear sprocket isnt 100% necessary but I think they'd be the most highly recommended by most people for getting started.
And then start adding on fun stuff as you get more comfortable with your bike and your skills improve:
Clipons (or flip stock ones)
Easy pull clutch
Hand brake
Tank Dent
All the other shit you mentioned, etc.
But of course some of the maintenance ones can be done right off the bat (brake fluid, decent pads, good tire, adjust suspension etc.)
