Announcing one's planned cabinet does sound good. It's more transparent, allowing the American people to know who they're electing beforehand.

It also makes the selection of the cabinet even more political than it already is.

It's already pretty damn political as it is. Besides, I'm sure that there are a lot of positions (advisers and whatever wonks) outside of the cabinet that are just as important.

NSA

Exactly what I had in mind. Though mind you, McCain may announce something like that preemptively to bolster his credentials. Ditto for possible replacements for Petraeus and other military leaders if needed Then again, that may be inviting a security risk.
