But that would mean you will have to define every kind of component you might want to use in the system, right? So let's take a big numer of 100 devices, I would have to make generics for all those devices. That can't be what one would want to do, unless thats the only possible way.

Sure you can come up with schemes where this would not make sense, I was just offering suggestions.
If you're designing a board for a specific application, and it has 100 components, then why would you not just instantiate all 100 components at once?
Its only the cases where you need to disable "some" of the components that you need to consider. But even that depends on what "disabled" means, eg., lets say you have two controllers that need to access the same I/O pins. You could either disable one or other components, or you could implement both and multiplex the pin functions.
Without knowing what your design is and what your real issue is, its hard to say much more. Other than to observe that you are likely making things more complicated than they need to be :)
