I'm aware of distros that come with common proprietary elements, Flash, Sun Java, etc. But does any come with proprietary drivers preinstalled?

Sabayon, Chakra. I'm sure there are many others.

The DVD version of Linux Mint does it.

Also PCLinuxOS, its one of the few distros that comes with almost all proprietary stuff per default, even too much for my taste because I would not need to have all this drivers installed on my system.

Hmm, I did not expect that many distros to be packed with proprietary drivers. What about Pinguy?

Could be possible.
