Yes, initial user creation should belong to gnome-initial-setup. (For the Workstation image only.) I'm not even certain that we want to allow setting a root password in the installer. (For the Workstation image only.) Having an extra password to remember is half as user-friendly, gnome-initial-setup will put the first user into wheel anyway, and gnome-control-center will never allow deletion of the last user in wheel. It's been optional for a couple releases now (you can just skip that spoke in anaconda and your system will work fine :), and Ubuntu has been doing it this way since about 2008 or so with no problems.
