These are valid questions. I know there was some discussion about making
the root GUI session a super-minimal session, but I'm not sure where it
went from there.

Perhaps a normal user account should always be created during installation
without any feedback (choice of username/passwd) which can only be logged in to
from the local console. Such a user could be the 'I need to do initial maint'
account rather than root... and still need the root password to make changes.
Something like 'fedora/fedora' for user/pass which is always created and needs
to be disabled once installed.
Once another normal user is created, the 'fedora' user could be automatically
removed (perhaps by firstboot once users are created)?
