It's been pointed out to me that it depends on what spin you install
from.  I used the MATE spin (with current release CentOS and Fedora),
and its install routine asks me to set up root, and at least one user. 
It does that while it's installing to the drive.

NB:  That's doing a default install from the live MATE spin ISO.  Not
installing Fedora (nor CentOS) from another ISO then adding MATE to the
installation (I haven't tried doing that).

I guess its down to policy of particular desktops whether they bother
to ask you about these things (how much they dumb things down, and how
much they expect people to update-over-the-top instead of doing a fresh
install).
