Thinking about it more, this really seems to be the way to go. Forcing
user creation in anaconda is a problem for someone who wants to do a
minimal install with no user account. Doing the above would reduce the
paths to something manageable without compromising any existing use
cases.

So, vpodzime, msivak: can we lobotomize initial-setup? Can we jettison
the root password and time/date spokes, and make it only do user
creation, and only run it if a user account was not created during
anaconda? That seems to be the path forward to sanity, in my mind
anyway.
