It was set to no during installation, user unaware of this. The Gnome shell > Settings > Network > Wired > gear button > Identity > Connect automatically checkbox is what affects the ONBOOT= value. A similarly named checkbox is checked in anaconda on Fedora 18, but is unchecked if the cable is unplugged in anaconda on Fedora 19. So the resulting installation gets an ONBOOT=no and stays that way until the user finds, five layers deep, this weird Connect automatically checkbox. But this bug has brought me to a plethora of buggy behavior in the Gnome Settings Network panel, so maybe the misery was worth it.
